Abstract

A user-activated modular switch assembly includes an actuator assembly slidable between a first position and a second position on a housing. A static knob or a rocking knob is selectively mounted to the actuator assembly to provide either conventional slide actuation or rocking activation of the switch. The actuator assembly configuration includes integral mounting members allowing for the direct mounting of either knob type.
