Product Overview

This switch provides off, run, and momentary-start control for compatible Caterpillar equipment. Similar 9G-7641 listings show different rear terminal arrangements, so the connector side must be compared before purchase.

Compatibility Notice

Q: Can another fault cause similar symptoms? A: Yes. Wiring, grounds, hoses, filters, related controls, and mechanical wear should be tested as part of the diagnosis.
