Fuel opener/Seat Opener Switch

[davenowherejones]

Does anyone know if the Fuel Opener/Seat Opener Switch has internal springs to keep it centred?

Mine is floppy after 100,000 miles. I have to manually centre it so that I can remove the key.

Is there an external spring that has gone missing? Do I need a new switch?

It is a nuisance but still rideable.

Doubt if it is serviceable.
A new one will solve the problem

New switch.. You can use a dual toggle switch.. (3 position center pos. off)

It is a mechanical switch pulling cables. Not electrical.

It certainly feels like an electrical switch operating a solenoid. You can hear the solenoid kick. If it was pulling a cable, it would be much stiffer.

It is mechanical. This is the page from the service manual - 2016 Forza

That is a nicer diagram than I have, Thanks.

It appears the centering spring is in the switch. I will just have to jiggle the switch to get everything in alignment. No big deal.

AGH!!
Very sorry, the action is very precise for a cable operation. So sorry!
