Rear lock-folding-roof assembly limiter switch replacement
Howdy fellow z350 owners,
due to unfortunate accident, I've damaged the limiter switch of the lock-folding-roof assembly (pictured bellow). Since the entire assembly new is quite expensive, I'd like to avoid unnecessarily replacing everything and instead I'm looking for sourcing just the limiter switch. Does anyone know where one can find suitable replacement? Thank you very kindly in advance! https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....04a4468088.jpg |
Its a microswitch, check Mouser Electronics, Grainger, Graybar for a replacement. Should be available, Mouser has tons of electronic components.

Thank you myork for pointing me in the right direction.
After some search I've resolved the producer to be Matsushita Electric and the part is an ABJ (BJ) Turquoise switch with wire leads bottom (simulated roller) leaf lever type and a 3mm mounting hole. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....768f2accb.jpeg Trouble is that Matsushita has been acquired by Panasonic so the part numbers have change, thus for reference I'm attaching the Panasonic specifications: https://www3.panasonic.biz/ac/e/cont...gure/index.jsp https://www.manualslib.com/manual/11...sonic-Abj.html http://www.mouser.com/ds/2/316/sw_m_eng_abj-1074849.pdf https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/my350z....9414d31bf4.jpg So it comes down to one of these: |
These switches are pretty easy to adjust/bend with needle nose pliers or hemostats to perform correctly. Have you checked for voltage when open/closed?
|
Unfortunately in this case the plastic holding the leaf lever has failed thus rendering the entire switch unusable.
|
SPDT = single pole double throw = 1 input 2 output
SPST-NC = single pole single throw - normally closed = switch allows current flow until switch is depressed SPST-NO = single pole single throw - normally open = current does not flow until switch is depressed Decoding the OEM switch you need SPST-NC or ABJ362840 |
This is fascinating stuff and something I can also try, thank you for finding out what you have. I just have to find a supplier in the UK to buy from. Unless someone can help me out? Willing to cover all Costa to get these over to me .
thank you |
Thought I would give this a bump to see if a supplier was found for these? I had contacted a number of sellers on eBay who sold many variations of switches but have not been successful.
