Sierra Push Button Horn Switch, Red, MP39690, Rated 15 Amp at 12 VDC

The Sierra MP39690 is a red push button switch commonly used as a horn switch on boats and other 12-volt applications. It is rated for 15 amps at 12 VDC, giving it enough capacity for direct switching of a marine horn circuit without an intermediate relay in most installations. The button face is finished in red, which helps operators quickly identify it on a dash or console panel, especially when paired with switches of a different color for other functions. This is a simple, momentary-style push button switch designed to be mounted into a panel cutout, making it a straightforward replacement part when an existing horn button has failed, cracked, or stopped making reliable contact. Because it is built around a standard push button switch design, it is also suitable for other low-voltage momentary switching tasks beyond horn activation wherever a 15 amp, 12 VDC rated red button is needed.
