En France, on parle de feu ou de voyant de contrôle de position. Cependant, dans le contexte nord-américain, le mot contrôle dans son sens original de vérification, surveillance ne serait pas compris. De plus, il pourrait apporter de la confusion, car pour les gens du milieu, contrôler la position signifie la commander. Or, ici il ne s’agit nullement de commande mais bien d’un mécanisme qui donne des renseignements sur la position de l'aiguille. 1, record 8, French, - feu%20indicateur%20de%20position%20d%27aiguilles
