An over-center toggle latch comprises a latch for securing two members together having a latch housing affixed to one of the members and a keeper having a projecting member affixed to the other of the members. Inside the housing is a toggle, mounted within the housing for pivotal movement between a first position and a second position. In the second position, the projecting member of the keeper is retained within the housing. In the first position, the projecting member of the keeper is released from the housing. A retaining means disposed within the housing is in pivotal contact with the housing and the toggle for retaining the toggle in either of the first or second positions. A protruding tab is disposed on the retaining means. A switch having a two-position push button actuator is located in the housing such that when the toggle is in a first position, the push button actuator is in a first position, and when the toggle is in the second position, the push button actuator is in a second position. When the toggle is in the first position, the push button is actuated to a first position by the protruding tab disposed on the retaining means. When the toggle member is in the second position, the push button is actuated to a second position by the protruding tab.
