[QUOTE="Buster, post: 123333, member: 4406"] Hello, Notts, UK. Just disassembled my original unit, however looks like many yrs ago the internals received some attention by its then owner. The pull lever has one small hole in it which has a split pin positioning a non conductive small rectangular pad, this pad secures / positions a return spring. The pad is just high enough to ride up a copper leaf spring which makes the circuit between the two terminals. The circular insulating disc to which the terminals are attached, (on my unit), requires replacing as its damaged, was going to use circuit board material and then bond it to the case; don't plan to try and bend back the retention lip. Any other suggestions ? I have a question regarding the outermost cover for the switch, my unit has three black 'plastic' circular discs, ea with two square holes cut thro' to clear the terminals, is this correct or should it be as shown, in the photos below. For info, my unit is off a Rapide No 37 ( Jan 1947) [/QUOTE]
