Title: Identification of Heater/Defroster Switch
Post by: Bill Bickle 15098 on October 19, 2018, 10:54:04 AM
This Heater/Defroster switch was found in a box of Cadillac LaSalle parts.It has a longer barrel than the 39-41. 
Can anyone identify the possible vehicle and year of application for this switch?

Bill,
I had one of those. I can't remember where it came from. I think it was for some other application. Maybe in the rear of an ambulance or commercial vehicle. I sold mine some time ago. The buyer was going to cut it down to the normal size. It's a tough switch to find & worth the effort.

That is a 5 way switch for a combination heater / defroster for 1940.  Rare as hens teeth.
