Abstract
A rocker switch has a spring biased movable contact which is continually connected to an electrical potential source and a lamp in the actuator has one lead connected to this spring and the other to a uniquely located resistor such that the resistor is connected selectively to one of the fixed switch contacts for illuminating the lamp. The lamp wires and the resistor are retained in the rocker by means which permits ease of assembly for these elements.
