TaissRotary Switch 4 Position 3 Speed Fan Switch 12A 250V/16A 125V Metal Fan Heater Speed Selector Switch with Knob and terminals F-040

The pull chain switch on my fan broke. So, not wanting to go through another broken string, I bought this rotary switch and it works perfectly. My only critique is that the threaded stem is not keyed nor is there a guide pin. I had to double nut it to keep it from spinning.

Buy this one for your stove fan and light it will not shatter and break like the plastic ones.,put blue locktite on the Allen screw on the knob and tighten it well and you will not have to mess with it again.,works well and they have a professional website.

I had a vintage hassock fan that needed a new switch and electric cord. I bought this switch, it has 5 terminals: H M L B C. The fan motor had 4 wires Black, Blue, Red, Yellow. I didn’t have much to go on, as the old switch was pretty trashed out. Black fan wire was put on L, Blue fan wire on M, and Red fan wire on H. The electric cord was a two pronged extension cord which I cut the outlet end off. The cord has a black (hot) wire and a white (neutral) wire. Attach the hot wire to B terminal and connect the white neutral wire to the remaining yellow wire of the fan. Do not connect them to C. I made the mistake of attaching the white and yellow to C and I had to replace the wall outlet! It took less than a fraction of a second to get really hot and blow. Luckily, no damage was done to the switch or fan and the outlet was replaced! I’m happy to report that somebody on Amazon who also had left a review for this switch said C terminal wasn’t used in this case. Also happy that all is working good on this old fan. First click is High speed, second click is Medium speed, then the third click is Low speed. Then when you turn the switch counterclockwise, it goes to M then H then off.

Works great but it needs to come with instructions/ which terminal is what.

This is a solid feeling switch. It won't do what I want as-is, so I'm going to have to add some circuitry, but I believe it will hold up well for a long time. For those who are confused about the truth table as I was, position 1 (fully ccw), no terminals are connected. For positions 2-4, the two bottom terminals connect together and one upper terminal is connected to them. Each in order.

This 4 position, 3 ON switch was utilized in the effort to retain all 3 fan speeds after the electronic control board began failing on our 10 year old cooler. Description for product is good. Quality of switch is good and appropriate for this price point. The control knob is sturdy and connections solid. The included female spade connectors are basic quality, but not trash, and were used in my efforts. There is a 5th terminal that passes power in all 3 ON positions. One could possibly use this terminal as power ON to the cooler pump when the fan is operating and have a one and done solution to get their cooler up and running. The toughest part of the installation was drilling and filing the mounting hole to final size to fit the switch correctly. (Picture note: The red switch operates the cool pump and the white switch is a push and hold ON switch from a clothes dryer door for the purge/drain pump.)

Rewired a Hampton Bay floor air circulator. I chose to solder right to the tabs using a heat sink to protect the innards. Take a picture or leave enough of the wires when you cut the old switch out to identify what color goes to what. There is nothing common or universal to that. The switch was too big to fit in the OEM switch housing but wrapping it with tape and zip tying it to the chrome wire frame worked out.

This item is not a direct fit, requires some modification to install
