Need Waterproof Horn Button

[PineRidge]

Can anyone supply me with information as to where I might find a waterproof horn button? I have seen many BIG & ugly buttons but I am looking for something a bit more respectable that will not distract from the tractor itself. I am going to be using a relay with it, so it will not need to be rated at more than 1 duty amp if that helps.

Hi...


Check marine (boat) retailers...

Two good on-line marine sources are West Marine and Overtons.

Depending on what you are looking for Dell City may have what you want. They carry a line of marine and farm (Surf n Turf) rated switches that are not too offensive. A single pole momentary contact sounds like it would work. This would be normally open and would activate the horn as long as you held the switch closed. The switch is spring loaded to return to the off position when released. Try www.delcity.net

What's wrong with a simple momentary push button with a rubber boot screw on cover. I get mine at the local hardware store. The switch goes in a 1/2" ( I think ) drill hole and then the rubber boot screws on from above covering the whole switch. I wouldn't immerse it, but it holds up to the hose and rain. The attachment show's what I use.

Here's my waterproof horn button on my TC30. I have a feeling it's the big ugly type you spoke of /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

It's the button on the upper left side of the vertical panel.

Mrwurm and does your horn go AARRUUGAAHH when you press that button? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Sorry, I just couldn't resist.

That's OK I'm so old I forgot what I asked . . .

And I'm old enough to understand the question, but too old to know how to describe it in writing to Jerry. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
