I have seen a number of keyed ignition switches advertised by various military sellers. The ones that I have seen seem maybe a bit more expensive than the typical ignition switch. Is this some sort of special switch that handles 24 volts and high amps?

I recently replaced the brake system drier on my m1088. Prior to loosening the bolts for the old brackets, the system built pressure. When I did a test of the system, before the final bolt down, the gauges showed no air pressure. Maybe it is a grounding issue? I saw some grounding straps around...
