Switches

Well this sucks...my local Allied Electric manager said he was getting me a quote, and now he's been a deadbeat for about a week.
Guess I'm back to square one And I guess they don't want my money

Did some searching and found eaton had some switches.There called new generation rockers and they seem to have a bunch of different symbols you can get for the switches.Not sure how many you have to order if you can order just one or need to order a certain # of them.There is a pdf you can look at on there website that shows the swithces and symbols its about 8 or 9 pages long.

What size switches are the deere switches and how many poles?I am not very savy in this area.

You can also find the Carling Contura series of sealed rocker switches at Waytek ( Welcome to Waytek Wire )

I installed 4 illuminated Contura switches on my 2520 open station. Great switch that tolerates the winter weather quite well.

Would you mind posting pictures? I'm interested in seeing your set up

Sorry for the late reply. I don't have photos at the moment and I'm still shopping for a new camera as my old one died. I should have access to a camera in a week or so & I'd be happy to post some photos at that time.

No worries! Sounds good. And take your time to buy the right one...cameras are like women. Some go bonkers after a few months, let alone weeks!

I figured I would update this thread. I found an Awesome website that off-roaders get their switches from. I ordered my switches - they carry a pile in stock. I'm just extremely happy I found these, after around 4 months of searching.
Patience pays off!

I will update with pictures once I get them. I also found out that Carling makes the switches for Deere. Carling makes some really impressive stuff.

Great, another resource for finding hard to get automotive switches. Thanks for posting it.

Oh yea good site and seems reasonable. Why is it that I searched high and low for a secondary fuse block and couldn't find on reasonable priced? Thats how it happens after you spend of make do you find what you were looking for .

Nice find...BUT...while those are of the same MFG & Quality as the factory JD switches, they arent the "Correct" style..
JD Uses the Contura XI style from Carling....
Yes, I'm **** with stuff like this. I didnt spend what I spent on my machine just to make it look cheap with non-matching switches.

I'll be VERY excited the day I can find labeled XI Series switches...the switches I got are correct but arent labeled with the nice logos...

Ohhh I know what you mean. These aren't going into a Deere, they're going into my F-350.
Carling makes some wicked stuff...oh and I got them in the mail, here's a pic.

No problem!

That happened to a member I know on another forum. He gave up searching for these and bought a different kind. Not even 2 weeks later I found this site, and he was some ticked off let me tell ya!

For the record my purchases there were excellent. Very fast shipping and great prices...I think I'm going back for more.
