ABSTRACT:
An electric switch (20) for use in vehicle electric circuitry is mountable on a trim panel (30) of the vehicle. The switch (20) comprises a circuit board (60) having first and second electrical circuits (80, 100) which are electrically disconnected from each other. The switch (20) has a movable member (130) for controlling the operation of the first and second electrical circuits (80, 100). The apparatus also includes an electrically conductive jumper clip (50) that can be mounted at either a first location (44) or a second location (64) on the trim panel (30). The circuit board (60) includes first jumper terminals (84) engageable with the jumper clip (50) to enable the first circuit (80) when the jumper clip is mounted at the first location (44) on the trim panel (30). The circuit board (60) includes second jumper terminals (104) engageable with the jumper clip to enable the second circuit when the jumper clip (50) is mounted at the second location (64) on the trim panel (30).
