Mk.lll electrical swich

The Mk III switches are cosmetically the same as the T140ES, there are Sparx repro's (& a NOS listing on ebay at the minute) - a quick google search shows that both left & right Sparx versions seem to be available again.

You may be lucky & someone may have one lying aroundthat they can let you have. If not you'lleither have to whittle something up, or scour the autojumbles looking for something similar. The left & right switches are identical &both aresecured by a smallx-headscrew inthe left face of the switch.

My own grail is that I'm trying to find a spring & ball bearing for the indicator switch after my late father 'helped' me by cleaning the contacts!

Hi there

i wonder if you can help. I have recently bought a 1975 mk3 however on the right hand handlebar switch the small plastic knob to switch the lights on is missing,just the plastic bit everything else is there do any of you know where i might get one or anything that i can use as a substitute.The part just seems to be a push on part on to a small metal spade

hope you can help. regards Steve.

Hi Steve,

Is there anything in the picture that is useful to you. I know it's the wrong side but maybe the buttons are the same. If so you can have it as it is of no use to me,

Regards Rob.

Hi Rob,

The MkIII is completely different.

Mike, Andover Norton have just sent me their newsletter for this month, and I noticed that they now do a Lucas switch repair kit number 13.1657, or 1656 depending on the year of your bike, for about £15.95 + vat

Don't know if that's what you are looking for, but it's got springs and ball bearings included. May be worth a look?

Hi Tim, yes I noticed that & wondered if it would work. The kit is actually for the earlier switches, I was saved from experimenting by Alan who kindly sent me the required parts!
