Wiring & getting started

  1. Check the mechanical fit

    Compare the body, mounting holes, terminal clearance and lever path with the original switch.

  2. Identify the three contacts

    Viewed from the marked side, the terminals are NC on the left, NO in the middle and COM on the right. COM is the shared contact, NC is connected to COM with the lever released, and NO connects to COM when the lever is pressed.

  3. Choose the switching pair

    For a typical coin-credit input, use COM and NO so the circuit closes when the lever is pressed.

  4. Test the mechanism by hand

    Confirm one clean contact change without forcing the lever against the housing, then reconnect the controller.

Note: This stock has no marked electrical rating. Use it for low-voltage signal switching unless you have independently confirmed suitability for a higher-load circuit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions buyers ask most.

What terminals does this switch use?
It has three 4.8 mm male quick-connect tabs. Use matching insulated female terminals or solder carefully without overheating the housing.
Which contacts should I wire for a coin-credit input?
Viewed from the marked side, the terminals are NC on the left, NO in the middle and COM on the right. Use COM and NO so the circuit closes when the lever is pressed.
Will it fit every arcade coin acceptor?
No universal fit is guaranteed. Compare the approximate 28 x 16 x 10 mm body, mounting-hole positions, terminal clearance and extra-long lever path with the original switch.
What electrical load can it switch?
This stock has no marked or verified electrical rating. Use it for low-voltage signal switching unless you independently establish suitability for a higher-load circuit.

Why Buy from NZN

Useful parts, fair prices and someone local to help.

I'm Lukas, an engineering student and maker based in Te Awamutu. NZN grew out of a CNC build that dragged on for months because every missing cable, bolt or electronic part meant another overseas order. I started the shop so Kiwi makers can spend more time building and less time waiting for the next parcel.
