I've not often seen symbols including the toggle...
Remove the toggle graphic, and put the words dim / bright (or high/low)
against the contact in the yellow box
You may find that the actual contacts are identified on the back of the
plastic as well, which you could include.

Without a doubt I am becoming somewhat more skilled at symbols, but of course all learning is relative.
The part I'm trying to document is this device from a 1973 Volvo 1800ES:
Just a toggle switch except for the two resistors mounded inside.
I had a fright when I recheck a bit of documentation that was inconsistent. The person showed the internal resistor bands and incorrectly said in one place the 39 ohm resistor was 30 ohms. Not what the bands told me. But I couldn't revise the 39 I had already drawn in the symbol. There should be a way.
Second, I was able to show the toggle in the opposite position and switch the internal contacts, which helps the story I'm trying to tell.
So how do I revise the "Shown as Dim" and "Shown as Bright" that I now realize should *NOT* be part of my symbol.
Short of redrawing my Symbols, do I have a solution?
Thanks,
Dave F.
