Indicator Microswitches...again!

[buellzebub]

I had the old problem of R/H indicator switch packing in the other day; no bother I thought, I'll just fit my spare.
Problem is the spare seems too tall - when it's all assembled the orange button is holding the microswitch down, keeping the indicator permanently on
Anyone else have this problem?
I could file down the heel of the orange button, but that's a bit permanent. Any suggestions?
I'm also in need of a new spare microswitch again now, does anyone have any to sell or know where they can be sourced?

Cheers,

Mick

Sussed it, it was the naughty little rubber dust boot!
The original has a small hole in the top whereas the replacement didn't, it has a thicker pad instead. Once I put the original boot on the new switch it worked ok.

I still need a new spare (or two) if anyone has any info?

Cheers,
Mick
