On-Off switch question

[geek1]

I recently took apart an old electronic spinning top and found an On-off switch with four pins.  I was wondering if anybody could tell me how to use it?





Thanks.

well you connect some wires to it. then when you move the slider, it either connects those wires or disconnects them

[geek1]

Can you tell me which pin does what?







Thanks

can you post a pic

also just get a multi meter and check

[geek1]

How would I use the multimeter?

(Sorry for all the totally noobish questions, Im a tad bit new at this  )

[cooldog]

put it in a conductivity test and try different pins while moving the switch

OK, I'll try that, thanks for all your help.
