Volvo controls question

[pappy84]

My wife and I purchased a 2004 Crusiers 280 CXi, twin 4.3 and SX drives. It has top mounted twin Volvo controls and on the front face of the control base are two switches. These are the trim overide switches for raiseing the outdrives to trailor position. The starboard switch is broken and was pushed back into the control base. I removed the base and removed the switch to replace it. The switch is a JUDCO 1024-2 and is no longer made. I called JUDCO and they refer me to their distributor. The distributor has no specs on the switch and no info on what switch replaced it. It looks like Volvo still sells the controls so a replacement must be available. Can anyone help me with this? Here is a pic of the controls...

Re: Volvo controls question

You should be able to buy the switch from Volvo. If you have a model number, send them an email and they will help you out. I have done something similar in the past.

Appear to be miniature normally open momentary push button switch with a rubber boot. The top just looks like a boot which screws down over the switch to protect it from water. You could replace both with out switches to make them look the same or find one which the boot will fit.

Does your switch look like this?
Volvo Penta Circuit Breaker Override Switch 3856848 | eBay

If so, do a search for that part number. Its less than $9 from Volvo.

Thanks for the help guys. A fellow fourm member from Puerto Rico on the Crusiers Yachts site gave me the Volvo part number for both the switch and boot (override 3856848 and boot 3856849).

Happy boating!
