| Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Wst. at W. 6135 Hn. {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} 4/MK.15.1.27. Push-Pull Switches. Your Ref: Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Wst.18/AP.14.1.27. We buy push-pull switches for such things as wipers, fog lamps, auxiliary dash lamps etc. and supply them to the coach-builders for fitting when the body is built to our own order. The switches are made up by a firm known as the Motor Roof Lamp Co. to a specification supplied to us by E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} , and we cannot trace having previously had a complaint. It may be that the switches which have given trouble were not made for us by the Motor Roof Lamp Co. but were bought by the coach-builders concerned from other sources. Can you send us the defective switches, please, for identification? Hn. {F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders} ✓ | ||
