Light switch orientation

Post by Ron_Hall »

Hi guy's, I have a dumb question! I'm installing a new light switch and not sure if release button goes up or down. The harness seems to fit either way. Or, does it make any difference?
Thanks
Ron

Doesn't really make a difference but I've always hated when it was on top so I turn it over first time I have to work with it. I don't have the force in my fingers that I do with my thumb to push that button to pull the shaft out.

Thanks Randy, that's good enough for me.
