Default CDL switch hex size?

Anyone know what size the hex is on the CDL switch? Metric I assume.

10mm? It doesn't look that small from the top, but I'll try it.

If you are talking about the nut that secures the linkage to the nipple, 13mm.

If the nut and linkage is removed and you want to engage the CDL, 10mm.

I was asking about the switch that lights the little dash light. Turns out mine was 11/16 for the locking nut, 9/16 for the head, and 3/8 for the body. My switch was toast either before or after I bent the spades with an 11/16 socket, so I put a short 3/8 bolt in the hole until I can get another switch (and not screw it all the way in like the Yahoos who changed the T-case did before I got it).
