Looking for an electrical switch for car

[Beehive3783]

I'm looking for a Single Pole, Triple Throw (SPTT) toggle switch with 6 connection terminals. I'm already using a SPTT rocker switch but the contact on one end is not so good so I'm looking to replace this switch. Have tried Sim Lim Tower and Autobacs but failed to find this kind of switch. Anyone knows where I can find it?

u can always connect another switch in series but always in on position, tats provided the current ratings on the switch can tahan the load and u r able to hide the 2nd switch somewhere.

My circuit doesn't work that way.

 

I have a set of LEDs that have 2 functions, flash and always on.

 

I need the SPTT to control the 2 functions to have the function I want at any one time. So the switch will work like this:

 

OFF: OFF

POS 1: FLASH

POS 2: ALWAYS ON

 

I can always use 2 separate SPDT switches with 4 connection terminals each and wire them up. But there is a risk of short circuiting if I do that.

I am interested in your set up but i cannot understand it.

 

can u draw a simple circuit diagram?

 

if SPDT switches can work, u may always add a fuse to prevent short circuiting.

Bro, SPTT is easily available at SLT leh...

 

Search around the top floor, tons there. Only thing is design is basic switch, so gotta put in box or something.

 

 

Mine I did as pos1 always on, pos2 always off, pos3 follow cabin light(even if cabin light off).
