1121 Switch Continuity Issue
« on: December 04, 2024, 07:29:54 am »
I acquired two 1121s switches. When I put 14v to them, the lights work and the switches operate as expected. However, when I check continuity between center and outside rails, both switches show continuity. If I remove the light bulb, then I do not get continuity on either switch between center and outside rails. Is this normal behavior, or is there a problem? If a problems, suggestions on what may be the issue?
