    Nice! I have some impulse buttons that are wired up as well

    Nice! This will help me wire the buttons on my elevator COP! I recently got keys for it!

    Love this! Im a kid who loves elevators and wants to start my collection to wire them with my dad (Union Electrican). Where should I look to get parts

    Will you wire a dover impulse elevator button as a light switch

    on that old yelowed the button of the microswitch works fine you could scalvaged from it

    I just realized can you use the screws that are in the button(wire it without a sodering iron) to the light?

      You might be able to. I actually want to remake this video since it's a bit older and I've improved on how I wire things now.

    I was able to wire my Dover impulse intermediate call station. However, my buttons only have 1 micro switch for some reason.

      I don't have a Dover keyswitch, but it would be the exact same concept as the button. You would just hook up your wires to the microswitch on the keyswtich instead of the button.

    If you only wire one switch the button won’t light up the led if that micro switch fails

      The chances of it failing in this setup are pretty low.

    Please don't tell me that led in that intermediate call station is red. If it is... Oh god, that led would be suffering.

      It’s pink. A red would need a resistor.

      @@stlelevators Good. Also something to note. It is just a good idea in general to add a resistor in series with any led even if the voltages are the same. There are many reasons for this.
      A LED is not like an incandescent light. LED's are very susceptible to over voltage because of the way they are built. Their voltage current relationship is not linear like most loads, it is exponential. So even small changes in voltage (as low as 0.2v) can cause huge jumps in current (which will either kill the LED or lower its lifespan). A resistor is always added so that any voltage jumps in the circuit will be absorbed by the resistor and not the LED (this is ideal).
      Something to note, just because the voltages of the power source and the LED match does not negate the need for the resistor. This is because there are electromagnetic waves that are emitted from many household products. These waves (if brought close enough to any conductor) can induce small voltages in a circuit. These voltages are usually small, but remember! LED's are VERY susceptible to over voltage. I have to admit, I too have made this mistake, the electromagnetic radiation emitting from my computer was enough to break an LED that was nearby that did NOT have a series resistor added to it.
      If you have any further questions about this, please don't hesitate to ask, I am always happy to provide more information on the basics of electronics to those who ask :)
