The invention discloses an attached switch in an automobile instrument stepper motor, which detects zero returning of an instrument indicator. The attached switch comprises a thin metal sheet, a thick metal sheet, a metal stopper and a wing spring, wherein a terminal pin is welded on the thin metal sheet; another terminal pin is welded on the thick metal sheet and extends to the outside of a shell; and the metal stopper is tightly pressed on an output shaft with an indicator. After assembly, the output shaft passes through a central hole of the wing spring, the metal stopper is pressed on thewing spring; one side of the wing spring is pressed on the thin metal sheet, so that the two terminal pins which are welded with the thick and thin metal sheets become two ends of a switch, one end of the switch is fixedly connected with the metal stopper, and a point A of the thick metal sheet and a point B of the metal stopper are contacts of the switch. When the output shaft rotates to a certain position towards a zero returning direction, the point A of the thick metal sheet and the point B of the metal stopper contact to show that the switch is closed; and when the output shaft rotates, the point A of the thick metal sheet is separated from the point B of the metal stopper to show that the switch is separated and indicate that the indicator departs from a zero position. Thus, the aim of detecting the zero returning of the instrument indicator is fulfilled.
