Title: LR 2a blackout switch dissasembly from panel
Post by: cvanschreven on December 17, 2017, 07:48:31 AM

Anyone removed one of these from the panel it's attached to? there is a pin on the top-side which is recessed into it's hole, I would assume this pin needs to come out, but how? as the pin hole does not go all the way through so it theoreticaly could be punched through! Any ideas welcome, thanks.

SOLVED .. the pin is sprung loaded in the recess, simply depress the pin in it's hole and pull the lever switch off. To easy!

I've only just dropped in here, you were fortunate that the pin depressed, as sometimes they are siezed solid, give it a squirt with a good quality lube before putting it back together, cheers dennis
