Handlebar light switch

Post by Kedge » Tue Feb 13, 2024 2:59 pm

Folks, seems I have made a big mistake in disassembling the hi-lo switch! Took things apart (1962 ca72) to clean contacts, lube, and polish the housing. Trying to reassemble but I simply cannot get the spring and tiny detent ball, and the contacts back together. I can barely get enough magnification to see these pieces let alone get arthritic fingers in there. Anyone have a solution to get all these back in?

Yes, it can be a bit like the skills of a watchmaker to assemble the switch correctly to perform properly. We offer a Honda switch reconditioning service: See eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/115808278042

We also have a newly reconditioned CA72 dimmer and horn switch available: https://www.ebay.com/itm/116029897417
