PodOne Posted June 6 Report Posted June 6 (edited) Hi folks My switch has gone intermittent. It is a metal one with two lock nuts recommended as an upgrade for the plastic offerings but has lasted around 7000 miles part number 51690 from Intermotor it has E146 on the box BMW??. Is there anything better that will fit? Thanks Andy Edited June 6 by PodOne Quote
RogerH Posted June 6 Report Posted June 6 Hi Andy, the trouble is that these switches are cheap. The clever bit is picking a good one. I have had this type fitted for some time now and working OK BMW Switch Roger Quote

Z320 Posted June 7 Report Posted June 7 At Germany one guy still offers original BMW 1602/1802/2002 switches. I have always one as a spare part in the boot - to support other TR drivers 😀 Ciao, Marco Quote
Drewmotty Posted June 7 Report Posted June 7 I’ve had a few fail. I’m currently using Hella switches on both cars with no problems over the past 3 years. Quote
