Hi

I need to replace the microswitch on the cold tap on my pathfinder.

Has anyone done this before, and if so, do you happen to know the model number of the switch?

Many thank.

If it's anything like my cruiser it doesn't have a microswitch on the tap.
Mine is a sealed system which has the switch built into the inlet socket.
hope this is of help
John

I have no idea what the model no.is but all the info will be on the switch.If it's been erased in an effort to make you source one from a dealer,just take it down to RS components or the like. There are a few sites that you can use if you know the make of tap,but they will charge a lot more  for spares.

Don't know if we were just lucky but we walked into a caravan shop and just bought one. Not much space in the loo! so that was the main problem but even himself managed it with out a problem ( you're going to tell me now it's the kitchen tap aren't you?)

If its the same as mine, then its an ITW 19N603.

I found mine just had a high resistance and you may find a squirt of switch cleaner or just operating the switch in your hand repeatedly (not via the tap) will clean the contacts and start it working again. Best checked with an Ohmmeter.

If you do need to replace make sure you get an exact replacement. The size and hole position is critical.
