Hi All,
Does anyone out there have a useable 914-6 indicator switch or know of anyone who can repair them? Mine's stopped working
thanks
Chris

NLA forever. Might be able to take a multimeter and check it out. May be bad or dirty contacts.

AutoAtlanta sells them but sell your plasma a few months before you can justify it

If AA sells them then I'm sure other places do as well. I remember ordering switches for the shop and being shocked by the price.

Thanks all. Think I've found a NOS one and also someone in the US who could repair it. Eye watering prices though !

Same switch as an early 911.. hence the price.

I thought the leads to the multiplug are different length ?

The one I got from AA is a converted early 911 which is different than my 70 911

Rory you are correct the lead lengths and colors are different than 911, it also has a 12 pin rectangle plug which differs from 911.
The internal switch architecture is the same so 911s can be converted but to do it right is a good bit of work.

It will be after Easter. I have been in Florida most of the winter. But once home I will see what I can do
