Abstract

A switch housing assembly (10) may include a housing (12) having a body (26) and an over-molded feature (27). The over-molded feature (27) may include a flexible membrane sealingly engaged with the body (26) and defining an actuation portion. The housing may be configured to sealingly engage a finish panel. A back cover (14) may sealingly engage the housing, and a rocker (18) may be included between the actuation portion and the back cover to transmit a force applied to the actuation portion to actuate a switch (16).
