ABSTRACT:
The invention comprises a switch assembly having a housing with a recess therein. A first contact has a mating section and is disposed within the recess. A second contact has a deflectable mating section and is disposed within the recess. An elastomeric material encapsulates the first and second contacts within the recess wherein force on the elastomeric material pushes the deflectable mating section of the second contact into electrical engagement with the mating section of the first contact thereby activating the switch.
