A toggle lever switch having a central longitudinal bore in the outer handle for housing an LED (light emitting diode) with terminals extending down through the handle and bent laterally outward along the pivotal axis through lateral holes in the spherical portion of the toggle lever to engage inwardly biased stationary terminals extending up through the bushing adjacently facing the lateral holes. The LED terminals themslves are used as the commutating connectors. Commutation means are provided for spacing the LED terminals and for maintaining good electrical contact with the stationary terminals, and in preferred form comprises an insulating plug having a pigtail. This plug is initially placed at the root of the terminals next to the LED, whereafter the terminals are pinched together in parallel overlapped relation so that they will fit through the bore on the handle and are inserted therethrough until the lateral ends thereof enter the lateral holes and the pigtail comes out through a radial hole extending from the junction of the bore and the lateral holes. The pigtail is then pulled to slide the plug down to spread the lateal ends of the LED terminals and ensure good electrical contact thereof with the stationary terminals.
