A first subassembly has molded integral therewith a first set of fixed contacts and a pair of solenoid winding bobbins. The second molded subassembly includes a base portion and an upstanding wall portion. Embedded in and extending through the base portion are a plurality of external terminal connectors. A second set of fixed contacts are supported by the upstanding wall portion. A movable contact support plate carrying a pair of center contacts is positioned between the fixed contact sets and is operatively connected to the plunger of the solenoid. A latch arrangement is supported by the upstanding wall portion of the second subassembly and operatively engages the movable support plate to positively retain the center contacts in engagement with either the first or the second fixed contacts.
