Abstract

The steering column switch unit is used for the switching of lights, the control with self-cancelling of turn indicators, and for the control of wind-screen wipers. It has a plastic material base (1) fixed to the steering column, identical switches and control levers to actuate the switches. Each switch has two fixed contacts (12, 13) attached to the base (1), one moving contact (25) to connect the two fixed contacts, and a push-button (19) which is actuated by a lever. The push-button can slide in a plate (17) which is restrained laterally by a metal spring strip. The push-button and the plate in which it slides provides the operation of the moving contact and its locking into the operate position.
