Title: Switches source???
Post by: campipilot on December 21, 2023, 08:10:44 pm
Anyone know a source for the dash switches on our grand villas?  I broke my eng brake switch and have trouble with a dock light just coming on occasionally.

I think I saw he was on here last week but he hasn't chimed in in a while.

Marine Grade Switches | Rocker Switches | Toggle Switches | Push Button (http://newwiremarine.com/marine-grade-switches/)

Single Rocker Switch Mounting Panel | VMS-01 Carling | New Wire Marine (http://newwiremarine.com/product/single-mounting-panel/)

New Wire Marine is a distributor for Carling switches. They have tons of options. The cutout size of the Valeo switches in the coach is a little taller than the Carling switches. But it might work OK. There is also the mounting bezel that could be put in to take up the extra height if you made the cutout a little wider.

I'm not 100% sure but I think these are the same as our OEM switches:
5XX.XXX SWF/Britax switch - Northwest RV Supply (http://www.nwrvsupply.com/product-category/switches-bezels/5xx-xxx-swf-britax-switch/)

Those look right, just green instead of plain red
