Actron CP7853 Remote Starter Switch

Bumped a big Block Chev over one time to find top dead center and never worked again. The switch is open all the time. Headed for radio shack to get a thumb off/on switch and will make a good remote switch from the scraps of this on. I gave it one star for working one time. We have a trade deficit with China because of substandard quality like this. This every American's fault, including myself, for buying foreign junks and excepting it.

To begin with, I bough one of these years ago and It didn't work right out the wrap, I had to fix it before using it. The clamps provided are to bulky and big to fit the small & confined starter fittings of different manufacturers and are not practical to most actual real world applications. I actually end up making my own with basic fittings that will fit different starter's configurations.

We have used this remote starter for 13 years in the most unconventional manner. It is used daily not for starting cars but for starting horse races, dog races, quarter horse time trials and official timing of racing events. This trigger has far surpassed what we expected for the product and performs great with no failures. The grip is comfortable and easy to mount on walls with velcro. You can't go wrong with this unit.
