  "textContent": "In a stalk switch, a control lever (2) is rotatably supported on a housing (1), and a driving member (3) is slidably held on the base end of the control lever (2) via a first spring (4). A sectionally V-shaped cam surface (5) is provided inside the housing (1), and an end of the driving member (3) is pressed into contact with a cam surface (5), whereby the control lever (2) can be rotated between the neutral position and the left and right operating positions. A stopper member (11) is slidably supported on the housing (1), and the stopper member (11) is urged by a second spring (12) having an urging force smaller than that of the first spring (4) so as to project from the valley of the cam surface (5). An attraction member (13) is attached to a rotating member (10) rotating operatively associated with the slide of the stopper member, and an electromagnet (14) is attached to the housing (1) so as to oppose the attraction member (13). When the control lever (2) is rotated to the operating position, the attraction member (13) is attracted by the electromagnet (14), whereby the stopper member (11) is held in a state projected from the valley of the cam surface, and the driving member (3) is latched in the operating position by the stopper member (11).",
