3 position headlight switch is now 2

The surround on the rocker fan and headlight switch on my '69 Sprite are black and all the replacement switches are painted chrome. Since the headlight logo is gone I bought a chrome surround switch took it apart and painted the surround satin black. Looks perfect, however, in putting it back together I now have only a 2 position switch, on and off, where did my 3rd position go. I tried all sort of combinations in reassembling the switch, but still no 3rd position. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
 
Figured it out. Don't know how many have taken apart the standard 3 position headlight switch, but the side you position the spring is crucial.
