Where can you get the replacement switch?
I also need to know where to get the replacement switch from !
If anyone wants to try it (I have not), I think the G type switch will work. BUT you will have to find a way to mount it, as it does not have the Metal case for soldering to the PCB.
Searchebay.co.uk for 11 Types, DPDT Self Latching Locking Momentary Push Button PCB SMD Switch 6 Pin
Select Type G
Try at your own risk and good luck
