Tracker John posted:My switches, from early runs, have small hex huts holding the cast rails to the base so disassembly and reassembly required a small hex wrench. I have seen a different attachment method in later production. Epoxy or Goop will hold the rails if the attachment mechanism fails. The simple solution is black electrical tape over the top of the rails - no disassembly required.
Thanks Tracker John, My switches don't have hex nuts; instead they have small retainer rings that look sort of like a tooth washer. One-time use. I've searched my local hardware store but not much luck.
Is there any drawback to the electrical tape fix, such as a dead spot in the switch? As you can tell by now, my electrical skills are lacking. Thanks a million for the help.
