Proper installation is crucial to getting the full performance from your VIVISUN® switch or indicator. Proper installation falls into three major steps: 1) installing the body; 2) wiring/installing the connector plug; and 3) installing the illuminated cap.
If you are installing or replacing only the cap, it is not necessary to uninstall an existing switch body. Special tools are available (cap extraction tool, connector plug extraction tool, and crimped wire insertion/extraction tool) that should be used for correct switch installation.
