end of travel switch / limit switch
Yet again, absence of sufficient surrounding context makes it impossible to do more than guess what is going on here. The literal meaning of 'fin de course' is end of travel, but depending on the context, it might be better translated as 'limit swicth' — if that is indeed its function.
