Just want to add that I did take that old switch apart.I wanted to fix it or salvage the gold circutry that must be inside. The contacts, much like old point ingition contacts, were not making contact. I found about 4 areas where I could bend stuff to get contact. I got continuity again and pressed the white cover back on. I epoxyed it for good luck. I reinstalled it and got continuity. What a coup, I thought.I drove and when the vehicle warmed up,I got nothin.With the white plastic box epoxyed forever,I contacted BD.OOS they said. Welllllllll vancafe launched me a new one in 2 days. All the way from Andromidafornia to Marylandnebual.Still cost too many Sheckles. |
