Top tip - turn the ceiling fan off before switching the direction change switch, otherwise it can go BANG!
Pete.
Hi is it defiantly a DPST and not a DPDT? The reason why i ask is because the only switches i can find on ebay or anywhere else are all DPDT.
Thanks

The switch you show in your first post is a DPDT which is basically 2 DPST together

The switch in the picture is identical in looks to the broken one in my fan but i have no idea as to the internal configuration. Do you think if i order a DPDT similar to the picture it will work in my fan?
I emailed the company you mentioned but they never got back to me.
Thanks

If you go into the Ferreteria on the front of the commercial centre where Comsum is at Lo Maribu they have a box of those type switches maybe be able to match yours there I was in the other day ask the young English lad in there they are very helpful

I can confirm that neither the Ferreteria near consum or CEF shop in Torrevieja sell this switch.

Yes that is the first place he went to but they didn't have it. There was no offer of finding and ordering one either. The CEF place tried to sell me a switch which was totally different (had a ON OFF ON) but after about 4 no's they got the message.
I have ordered what looks to be similar online now so hopefully that will work once i connect it up.
