Trim switch needed
 
2 Attachment(s)
I am needing another trim switch just like the one below in the picture.. Sounds simple & I would think I could find one here local but I have yet to find one like it...

It is obviously pulled out of the handle in the pics. so it appears to look larger than it is...

Measuring at the flange it measures :
1 1/4" tall x 5/8 wide

it needs to be as follows :
momentarty on / off / momentary on

In otherwords it needs to spirng back to center on its own..

Is a 2 pole switch (I guess , I am no electrical dude)
--- it has 3 wires ---

Thanks in advance for any help , Scott

here are 2 pics. that may show a bit better

They are nothing fancy & the new one doesn't have to be exact , however it Can't be any larger..

Also if its not the same I will need 2 instead of 1
I am adding a switch to make 2 where there was 1 switch..

I just checked with Dana & so far they have the best variety of anybody I have found & their tech guy I talked to was very helpfull.. my problem is their smallest switch is still about an 1/8" wider than I need , making it 1/4" accross the 2.. I know I can make it work with a little fabricating , However I'm just trying to keep a simple thing simple & thats not always that simple... lol...

Thanks again Daredevil..

If anybody else has any places that may be helpful feel free to pass them along..

Is that Bam's site ?? I was on there earlier today & my brain must not have been fully functioning today b/c I couldn't find the switch... I have 2 that will be at the shop sometime tomorrow (actually today now) but i'm not sure if they are going to work out for me.. Ifnot I will give them a shout.. I hate to give $32 bucks for a 5 dollar rocker switch but if it works how I need it to & saves a few hours fabricating something then its worth it...

Thanks for the attachment with the part #'s !!!
