turbo 400 kickdown switch

I knew I had one of these switches, but it took me forever to find it. It was in the first box I checked, but it was hiding under something so I missed it the first time.

If you push it forcibly in the direction opposite the spring, it pops out. Then, if you push the gas pedal to the floor, the pedal rod will set the switch to the correct position. I can hear and feel something ratcheting inside the switch when I reset it by hand.
