ABSTRACT:
A switching device for selectively actuating front and rear windows of a vehicle. The device includes: a case, a first switch assembly mounted on a front end of the case for raising and lowering the selected windows, and a second switch assembly for selecting between the front and rear windows controlled by the first switch assembly. The second switch assembly includes a switch which is biased into a first state in which the first switch assembly controls the front windows. The first switch assembly only controls the rear windows when an operator depresses an operation member of the second switch assembly while manipulating the operation members of the first switch assembly. In one embodiment, the second switch assembly is positioned such that the operation member is manipulated by a palm of the operator's hand. In another embodiment, the second switch assembly is positioned such that the operation member is manipulated by a thumb of the operator's hand. In both embodiments, the first switch assembly is manipulated by the operator's fingers.
