I would just get a toggle switch and wire it direct. Pretty damn easy and it will engage instantly with no more problems.

Sorry man I was already in BFE Kansas by the time I saw your post. I am running 70 all the way out. For anyone traveling the same route the wind is howling and its tricky keeping the truck in my lane especially when couming out from behind a semi.

I am continously searching the Google machine for a place to park/camp for the nights. Anyone have any recommendations for spots that are legal and would be open in the evening.
