In the past I've wanted to reduce the current load on that switch in different vehicles. I've lowered the load from items I''ve add. To the heater blower motor, and starter solenoid. I simply used the heater blower relay from GM cars, and trucks that had A/C units. In the case of the starter solenoid. I believe the solenoid requires around 30 amps. By having the relay carry that load. That load went down to 1 amp. I've also used that relay so I didn't have to run a heavy wire a long distance.
