Dear all,


I have a rear maxidrive locker on my def 90..super happy with it, does the job first time right. However due to a recent accident the vacuum witch in the cabin to activate the locker, is broke.


Any pointers from where I can source a replacement please? The Googlenet is not throwing up good results for me.




Kind Regards

Contact MR Automotive in Redcliffe, they sell Maxi drive products. There are 2 types of switch. The original was an actuator and switch in 1, it ran the vacuum hoses to the actuator and is recognised by a brass nob. The later design sold by MR Auto when they took over the product line is a plastic nob which is an electronic switch for a remote relay/actuator. MR Auto should be able to sort you out for either type.

I will have the original brass pneumatic switches somewhere, let me know if you are interested, and I'll search for them.
