I might have a spare. I’ll dig around in my parts stash tonight.

Found a few. This one was the nicest - smooth movement of the off switch. From a 608/808.

Yours for the cost of shipping.

Ben

Thanks Ben. It looks good! Does it have a smooth operating wafer board switch the solenoid links to with the paper clip type link? How much to ship standard ground to 809 E. Holland Ave., Fresno CA. 93704?

Awesome!

Once you have this all sorted, please do open up your old switch and post a couple of pictures if possible.
It would be great to see how these fail, and determine if they are repairable.

Will do.

Finally got the new switch from Ben installed. It works great!

WRT rebuilding the switch. So far the brown “plastic-board” backing appears to have been pressed onto tabs on the edges of the connectors. It looks like each of the tabs would need to be ground off or possibly clipped to remove the back. It doesn’t appear to be glued.

I may have to sacrifice the back to tell if there are any internal components that can be repaired.

I’ll keep you posted and will send pictures
