This 2-circuit, 3-way rotary switch fits the square and rectangular ceiling fixtures used in 1965 to 1971 Airstreams and some Streamlines of the era. It is compatible with our diffuser for that fixure .
It has 4 positions and works with 2 sockets or 2 sets of sockets.
The 4 positions are:
- OFF
- Circuit 1 ON
- Circuit 2 ON
- Circuits 1 and 2 ON
It is rated to 6 amps. Many original switches were rated to only 3 a mps, but read the rating on your current switch or add up the draw of your light bulbs to determine whether this is adequate.
Hard-to-find long length works with the original diffusers and replacement diffusers. Threaded portion extends 1-1/8″ from top of switch base (1-1/2″ from bottom of base).
It comes with a brass knob threaded onto the switch. The original plastic knobs do not fit the switch.
Wiring Tip: The 3 leads are labeled L, 1 and 2 on back side of black base. L is the black wire and it goes to your line voltage (hot/positive). The blue and red wires go the bulbs.
