Sliding the clutch arm against the ball pushes the ball in and creates contact. There are also other versions that do the reverse of that. 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edgro 677 #10 Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) Very similar to a backup light switch for a fuller transmission. If you google that you will find ball switch with various types of electrical connections. The one with 2 small screws may be useful Edited October 21, 2021 by edgro Spelling 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peter lena 8,634 #11 Posted October 21, 2021 @kpinnc opportunity while in the wiring / relay trouble zone , look over related wiring for chafing or corrosive areas , usually find anything else related to a problem , with a detail search , pete 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,906 #12 Posted October 21, 2021 Rylee’s “Screamin’ Jimmy” the Commando 800 has one of these on the clutch pedal. It is a perfect interlock to make sure all her safety requirements are in place (butt in seat) before starting. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
