Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What electric lift truck models use the 3131379 ignition switch?
A: The 3131379 OEM-style ignition switch is compatible with electric forklifts and pallet jacks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Linde. The 3-terminal configuration and 12 VDC rating suit standard electric lift truck ignition and electrical control systems. Verify your equipment voltage and terminal configuration before ordering.
Q: What are the electrical specifications of the 3131379?
A: The 3131379 is rated 12 VDC nominal with 10 amps resistive load capacity. The switch provides single-pole 3-position control: OFF, ON, and START positions. Brass terminals and die-cast zinc body ensure corrosion resistance and reliable electrical connection in material handling environments.
Q: What is the terminal configuration of the 3131379 ignition switch?
A: The 3131379 has 3 brass terminals configured for standard electric lift truck ignition circuits. The key-operated rotary action connects different terminal combinations for OFF, ON (electrical accessories), and START (motor engagement) positions. Verify terminal labeling matches your wiring diagram.
Q: What failure symptoms indicate the 3131379 needs replacement?
A: Replace the switch if the truck will not start despite good battery voltage, the switch makes poor electrical contact during rotation, the key is loose or difficult to turn, or terminal corrosion prevents current flow. A failing switch causes intermittent electrical loss or complete loss of ignition function.
Q: Is the 3131379 ignition switch key-operated and corrosion-resistant?
A: Yes. The 3131379 features key-operated rotary action with silver contacts and a die-cast zinc body. These materials resist moisture corrosion and oxidation common in wet warehouse and outdoor material handling environments, ensuring reliable ignition performance over extended service life.
