				i'm looking for a small switch that is a 3 position toggle switch that is ON-ON-ON. i want to be able to switch between 3 temp senders for my auto meter guage's. i'm gonna wire the 3 senders to on side of each of the 3 pairs of pins on the switch, and then connect all of the other 3 pins together and run that side to the guage. i'm having a really hard time locating something local. and i hate to order something cause i cant hold it and do the "eyeball engineering" w/ it. anyone found a good reliable place to find them, or order them from?

				I just went to the garage and raided my "stash" from my days as an Avionics Technician. I've got all types of small switches (with lockouts, without lockouts, double throw quad pole, etc) but none of what you need. I have been looking online at the aircraft stores and such and nobody seems to have a triple throw switch that is "on-on-on", they are all "on-off-on". Hmmm. I'll keep looking..... You may have to consider a rotary switch. Or, a pair of switches (up for oil temp, down for either transmission or rear end temp, using a second switch). That gets a little complicated for the cockpit though. |
