    de manière encore plus préférentielle, la plaque de circuit (18) est logée dans le boîtier (2) notamment dans la partie inférieure du boîtier (2).
  9. Interrupteur électrique selon les revendications 1 à 8,
    caractérisé en ce que
    l'organe d'actionnement (3) coopère avec un élément générant un effet haptique pour le basculement et/ou la rotation et/ou le coulissement,
    de préférence l'élément générant l'effet haptique pour le coulissement se compose d'un disque à déclic (21), et
    de manière encore plus préférentielle, l'élément générant l'effet haptique pour le basculement se compose d'une coulisse (23) prévue dans une coupelle de palier (22) recevant l'articulation de cardan (10), et dans laquelle pénètre un prolongement (24) de l'axe (8) notamment sous l'effet de la force d'enfoncement exercée par un ressort (25).
  10. Interrupteur électrique selon la revendication 9,
    caractérisé en ce que
    l'élément qui génère l'effet haptique pour la rotation et le cas échéant les positions d'enclipsage pour la rotation, se compose d'un moyen magnétique (26) prévu notamment sur le moyen de rotation (5) ainsi que d'une couronne dentée (27) coopérant avec le moyen magnétique (26) et notamment montée de manière fixe dans le boîtier (2).
  11. Interrupteur électrique selon la revendication 10,
    caractérisé en ce que
    le moyen magnétique (26) se compose d'un électroaimant (28) avec un noyau fixe (29), de manière préférentielle, la couronne dentée (27) comporte des dents (30) venant radialement en saillie, et de manière encore plus préférentielle, un moyen haptique modifié et/ou des positions d'enclipsage modifiées pour le mouvement de rotation de l'organe d'actionnement (3) sont réalisées par la disposition correspondante et/ou l'alimentation des bobines du moyen magnétique (26) et le cas échéant par une disposition à l'équerre des dents (30) de la couronne dentée (27).
