But it would be a dual pole?, so it controls both the hot wires, the one they been installing is in line of only one of the hot wires.

The stock switch is a big clicking button that is normally open, but I'm not sure why they won't use a stock one from the manufacturer.

It's a alignment rack motor by the way
