To provide a steering switching device which has small number of components, is excellent in assembling property, and easy to be miniaturized.
The steering switching device 3 is provided with a supporting member 4 mounted on a spoke part 1b, a tilting-operable operating knob 5 which is rotatably supported by a holder 10 fixed and installed at the supporting member 4, and which protrudes to a space portion 2, a presser 11 and a coil spring 12 which have been incorporated into a cylindrical part 5b of the operating knob 5 as a returning means, a circuit board 7 supported by the supporting member 4 because groups of a fixed contact 16 are formed, and a rubber sheet 8 placed on the circuit board 7 by protrusively installing groups of rubber switches 9. The circuit board 7 and the rubber sheet 8 are shared by push-switch mechanism S1 driven by the operating knob 5 at the time of tilting-operation, and the push-switch mechanism S2 driven by respective operating members 6. Furthermore, the presser 11 elastically contacts a cam face 10a of the holder 10.
