Abstract
A lever switch for a vehicle which is easy to assemble is disclosed, which includes a control lever 50 having switches at the end, a swing block 24 rotatably retaining the control lever, and a casing 1 rotatably retaining the swing block together with the control lever, for allowing the control lever 50 to be rotatably retained in two intersecting planes, a rotating shaft 24a is formed on the lower end face 24f of the swing block 24, the rotating shaft is fitted in a shaft hole 1c formed in a support surface A of the casing to retain the swing block 24 rotatably, a recessed portion 24b communicating with the control lever is formed in the outer peripheral face of the rotating shaft 24a through the lower end face supporting the rotating shaft. Wire leads 11 jutting from the switches are led to the lower part of the casing 1 through the recessed portion 24b, thus facilitating assembly as compared with a structure of wiring through a through-hole 24c at the center of the rotating shaft.
