I have an old SMC ceiling fan and I have to replace the 3 speed pull chain switch because the neck is broken on it. All the universal switches on sale on the market do not work because they are wired differently inside. The switch is a KTE 308-A (made in Japan ) I have contacted the company in Japan to find out where I could buy such a switch but they said that I had to buy a minimum of 5,000 switches. I have search the internet with no lock.
Could you help me find a place where I could buy a switch.
The speed connection are : L-1-2-3, L-2-3, L-1-3, L1-2
Thank you and have a great day !

Its odd that the Off position connects L+1+2+3. I would ignore that Off Connections,
Is everyone in agreement that the switch is #3, under "pull chain switches" on ceilingfan's link, which is listed under double layer?

The off position is probably one of the other three positions. Or the OP is measuring wrong. Either way that link will help him get the correct switch.

Just doped out the wiring on one of these. The hot wire is connected to terminal 3. The common is connected to one end of the reversible winding. The fan is ON whenever terminal 3 is connected to "L".
