Light rocker switch 701/60016 JCB, aftermarket

For the JCB machines: light rocker switch 701/60016, an aftermarket part.

Light switches on the cab panel control lighting circuits such as side lights, headlights or work lights. The product card lists this switch as a light switch, and the body of the switch in the photo shows 12 V and the part number. Lighting circuits draw heavy current, so the switch usually drives a relay, and if it runs hot the relay and wiring are checked too. A faulty light switch leaves lamps dark, flickering or going out in one position. Working lights are essential for night work and road driving. The light switch rocker may be backlit so it is easy to find at night, and if the backlight is out the lamp inside may be faulty. The switch comes new.
