ABSTRACT:
An actuator subassembly is for a rocker switch. The actuator subassembly forms a self-contained unit removably inserted within the rocker switch to define the operating characteristics thereof. The actuator subassembly includes an operating member operable between a plurality of positions, an extension and a spring-biased plunger. A shaped member which is pivotally coupled to the operating member includes a plurality of shaped sections each corresponding to one of the positions of the operating member. Each shaped section has a profile which is designed to provide the desired rocker switch operating characteristics, such as the type of action of the operating member and the operating force for the operating member.
