I don't no if this should live here or in some other thread so please move if so.
The forward/reverse switch on the Harrison L5 has chucked it's hand in, it started a month or so ago when it would not switch on.
I pulled it apart but did not have a clue what i was looking at, all seemed to be in order so it had it's lid put back.
Today it has died, it just turns: i can find lots of rotary switches on the bay but they start from £12 and go up to over £100 :scratch:
Can some body help me as to what i buy? Many thanks. Lyn.

Can you post up some pictures of the switch ?
Might help us id what may be suitable......
How many wires go to it?
What about this 121294815118 on Ebay? Look anything like yours!

Is it a Dewhurst type?

Thank you all, and THANK you Manxmodder. It is the Klockner-Moeller switch on my machine and i have ordered one :nrocks:
The spindle is turning on mine but the cams are not moving :doh: 312 plus 3 for postage is not bad at all.

Klockner-Moeller switch arrived this morning, not as big as the original switch and different attachment to the box :doh: but for the money it will fit with a bit of :dremel: must check the connections as well.
