GSA left hand combination switch indicator button gone awol

[Jennyp]

Has anyone suffered the loss of the grey indicator switch button? Mine went awol when out on a ride. £278 for new switch from BMW….crazy money for the sake of a 50p bit of plastic. Of course 2nd hand switches in UK don’t exist and those elsewhere are crazy money. Now its a matter of creating one from a bit of oak wood. Wonder if 3D printing a replacement is a possibility?

If you can gat it into an STL file I can 3D print it for you if it helps? Got black, white & Orange PLA..

I think I had the indicator switch cluster somewhere, which I bought off ebay ages ago but don't quite know why. I think my indicator switches on the opposite sides of the bars were annoying me and I had a silly idea about converting my bike... I gave up, of course and [almost] got used to the switches ... I'll look for the switch in the box-o-bits in the garage, looks like I may be able to swap it for something more useful

Well, I found it, but posting pictures here is a bit of a faff. So if anyone needs LH bar switch cluster, let us know... cheers.

Hi, I have it also broken - was thinking if you have a button or 3D model of it for print

I think you can get buttons on AliExpress.

Have you got a picture of what you need? I think I have a few bits spare..

 

[Karpeggiani]

Not yet. After the check I understood that blinke internal plastic part is broken - the lever that goes out to the button. Will get it out of the bike - will see what can be done. Ideally - to have from second hand switch combination or find 3D model to print

I am sure I found it ... in 2022 But I will have to look again as a bit of time has passed since. It was a complete either new or near-new switch cluster. Wasn't really looking to just take the button off it. But would be happy to listen to a reasonable offer for the whole thing.
Don't have the schematics for it, just the cluster...
