The high-beam/low-beam headlight switch on the floor of most of your motorhomes looks like an ordinary pushbutton switch. However, unlike most "momentary" -- OFF-(ON) -- pushbutton switches, this switch is a "latching" -- ON-ON -- switch.
It can easily be replaced by an ordinary ON-ON toggle or rocker switch on the dash, as they are operationally the same, with the difference being a pushbutton versus a toggle or rocker.
(Never mind the joke about people getting their leg tangled in the steering wheel when trying to "dim" the headlights on new vehicles.)
Switch out the floor button????? But that's HISTORY!!!! :) It's amazing how many people don't know what it is.
