HI.I hope i can get an answer hear to my question.
I own an old karcher power washer model k720m.The on/off switch has broken,i have removed the switch to see if i can purchase a new one.I have found a switch which is going to cost over £40,crazy.When i removed the old switch i did not note down where the wires went there are 5 wires going to this switch,if i get this new one how will i be able to tell where the wires go? or is there a way that say i can soLder the wires together and do away with the switch alltogether? HELP PLEASE THANKS..
 
you will have to ring the manufacturer,to get a diagram.dont solder anything to remove theswicth, as this will mean that you will be plugging the unit in on load. you will get arcing when you plug it in, and this will damage your socket outlet, and the plug.
 
man this is an old thread! not sure how I came across it or if the OP had fixed it.
if not, PM me and I can help you out (I'm an engineer for Karcher)
