- All the features
Column switch 701/80297 is an aftermarket part for the JCB machines. The card also lists 332/Y6916.
A column switch is a lever switch mounted on the steering column that lets the operator control the main functions without taking a hand off the wheel. Contacts inside the switch open and close the relevant circuits according to the lever position, and it connects to the machine's electrics through a connector at the end of its harness. Worn contacts make a function drop out now and then or fail to respond in one position, while a broken lever or loose mounting leaves the lever position uncertain. Before replacing the switch, check the fuses and relays; if the fault is not there, the switch is replaced. If the return spring weakens, the lever no longer returns to its centre position by itself.
