I = On

0 = Off

The on position on an IO switch would be the 'I'. That only leaves the 'O' to be the off button. So, the 'I' on an IO switch would be on, and 'O' would be off. The termonology of using I, comes from basic electroincs, where I = current flow (I=E/R). I/O was chosen as an international electrical designation, as it historically crosses all languages where electrical design is concerned.

Why does a triple pole single throw switch close from the bottom to the top?

The electrical code states that a switch is to be mounted so that the handle of the switch is on in the up position. It is a safety issue that if the switch handle gets inadvertently bumped or hit it will move the switch to the off position and not to the on position. It is not just a triple pole switch is it any power distribution switch.

P0705 is the code for the transaxle range signal malfunction.

Try changing out the switch.

Is it difficult to differentiate a SPST switch from a SPDT switch?

No it is not hard to tell them apart. A Single Pole Single Throw switch will go directly from the on position to the off position breaking the circuit. This is the type of switch that is used in homes for lighting control. A Single Pole Double Throw switch will usually have a stop indent which is the off position mid way through the throw. This is the switch that is used for a transfer switch when using a stand by generator in the system. The full up (on) position is usually connected to utility power. The full down (on) position is usually connected to the stand by generator.

How do you choke a chainsaw?

Depends on the saw... On a Stihl chainsaw there is a four position switch. Top position is OFF, second position is RUN/IDLE, third position is HALF CHOKE and the last position is FULL CHOKE. Hold the throttle in with your finger and move the switch down with your thumb. DO NOT try to move the switch down into choke WITHOUT holding in the throttle. On a Husqvarna chainsaw there is normally a switch that you pull out towards you. However, there have been models made that you have to push a switch downwards.
