This lever type change-over switch has 4 terminals. This genuine Bosch replacement part is sold individually.
Switches are commonly replaced parts in tools. A switch handles on/off and variable speed operations. They also have a role in electric breaking; they can momentarily reverse electrical polarity. Because switches use mechanical internals, they will degrade and wear out over time, eventually needing replacement. Some common signs of a broken or failing switch are as follows:

Removed screws on handle (3) . Removed old switch and installed new one, paying attention to the location of the four (4) wires and their proper location, install on the new switch. Reinstall switch in housing and handle. Tighten screws. Done.
Easy fix. Part was exactly as described and works perfectly. Thanks for sending me the part needed to fix this drill. I have used this drill for many years and am happy to have it fully functional again. Wish I had ordered the part earlier!
