Abstract
A rocker actuator switch having a frame which has a first projection extending therefrom which passes through a yoke portion of a rocker actuator that moves between on and off positions. The rocker actuator is pivotally connected to the frame by a snapping arrangement whereby a second frame projection is guided and slides along a flexible cantilevered beam, which is disposed in a sidewall of the rocker actuator, until the second projection enters a partial circular cutout in the sidewall of the rocker actuator. Upon entering the cutout, the flexible beam retains the second projection in the cutout where it is free to pivot.
