So my on off switch went bad 6 months ago and i got it into the on position and left it there. Well it is acting up and the boat shuts off randomly now. So i don?t need to program the esc so all i need to do is delete the switch. Any suggestions on going about this?

On many ESCs with switches you can cut the switch off, solder the wires together, and insulate the exposed end. Or if you are handy with a soldering iron and the ESC isn't potted, desolder the switch leads from the board and bridge the switch lead contacts on the board.

Well i guess i have to some how figure out what one of the two red wires is the program wire because it is a 3 wire switch

Soldered in reedy power esc switch no.29184. All fixed. This one will stay in the on position
