Description
Car Lift Power Unit Overhead Limit Switch – Stop Micro Switch for Rotary, SPX, and More
This is a heavy-duty electrical micro switch for automotive lift power units serving as the overhead limit / stop switch. When the limit bar or cable rises to the preset height, this switch cuts power to the hydraulic motor – preventing the vehicle from contacting the overhead beam. It is wired to the limit switch bar or trip wire cable and must be mounted on the power unit motor. Replace when the lift fails to stop at the set height or the switch shows visible damage or fails continuity testing.

Fitment and Ordering Notes
This switch fits the overhead limit switch position on the power unit motor – not the pendant control box. Verify your existing switch matches the wire lead configuration and mounting before ordering. Compatible with many lift brands including Rotary, Forward, Challenger, Direct Lift, SPX, and Fenner. Confirm the switch type (normally open vs normally closed) required by your lift before installation.
