Lights Indicator Switch
Yes I am back. Looking for a good Lights/Indicator switch or if anyone knows where I can get one from a breaker yard. I pulled the switch today and what is happening is that it falls past neutral and hits the contacts on the other side. Very frustrating. I did replace the broken spring but the tension is not enough to keep it in neutral. Any help from anyone would be gratly appreciated
Thanks

I don't understand how that would be possible. Those switches have little stops to prevent the handle from being pushed down so far that it does what you describe. If the stops are broken off, then yes, it will happen, but the column cowl needs to be off for that to happen. Put it all back together and see how it operates. I think the new spring is wraped one full time around the shaft.
