ABSTRACT:
A rotary push-type stepper switch can include a printed circuit board that acts as a support mechanism for tubular electrical connectors extending beyond the edge of the board through cut-outs in the perimeter wall of a switch housing. Each tubular connector has an upstanding tab extending through the circuit board, so that the tubular connector has good surface area support on the board lower surface. Each tubular connector has two cantilever spring leaf elements adapted to grip the surfaces of a spade terminal inserted into the respective connector.
