I'm wiring up my setup, and I've run into a question about the relay.

I have a factory switch in my center console that is to adjust the factory adjustable suspension (firm or normal).. Since I'm taking my adjustable shocks out, this switch isn't going to be used for anything anymore and I was thinking of using it for an on/off switch for my compressor. I was wondering if I route the output of the switch to my relay (85-prong), if it will draw too much current and burn the switch up. I'm hooking up my compressor to the 87-prong, an 8ga. power wire directly from the battery to the 30-prong, and my pressure switch to the 86-prong, and then a ground off the pressure switch.

I guess my question is, will the 85-prong (hooked up to my factory switch) draw too much power and burn up the switch, or should I be ok? The wiring on the switch looks to be 12-14ga.

Hope that made sense... Thanks
