A power lock/ignition key switch with a 2-pin configuration is commonly used in various applications, including motorcycles, electric bikes, and other vehicles. Here’s a breakdown of its features and how to use it:

Key Features

• 2-Pin Design: Typically includes two terminals for easy wiring; one for power input and one for output.
• Functionality: Used to control the ignition system, allowing you to start or power on the device.
• Lock Mechanism: Often comes with a key to prevent unauthorized access or accidental operation.

Wiring

1. Power Input (From Battery): Connect one pin to the positive terminal of your power source (e.g., battery).
2. Power Output (To Load): Connect the second pin to the component you want to control (e.g., motor controller).
3. Ground: Depending on your setup, ensure that the system has a proper ground connection.

Installation Steps

1. Mounting: Secure the switch in a location that is easily accessible.
2. Connect Wires: Use appropriate gauge wire to connect the switch to your battery and load.
3. Test: Turn the key to ensure the switch activates the power correctly.

Considerations

• Current Rating: Ensure the switch is rated for the current it will carry; typically, this information is provided by the manufacturer.
• Water Resistance: If used outdoors, consider a switch that offers some level of water resistance.

Troubleshooting Tips

• No Power: Check connections to ensure they are secure and that the battery is charged.
• Intermittent Connection: Inspect the switch for wear or damage that may affect its operation.
