starter switch

Post by paul marti »

Hey Folks I know we've been through this before, but does anyone know the best match to replace the push button starter switch on our panels. I have the Universal model 24 with the basic push the glow plug push the starter system. Mine died today and she fired fine hot wired, so I know it's the switch. Thanks, Paul Marti

Try Cole Hersee / Defender

Hi Paul -

I replaced all my switches (push and key) on Perkins panel last year, using Cole Hersee parts. Lot's of distributors. Defender stocks more common parts, including momentary push button you're looking for:
