Several months ago i started rebuilding my layout,when i went to re-install one of my 036 left hand switches it would not throw the switch in either direction,if i pushed the cherry switch in with a screw driver,it would throw the switch in both directions,but only when i pulled the lever down,it would not throw the switch in either direction when i pushed the lever up,i did post this problem here on the forum at that time,there were a number of suggestions,but being of limited knowledge i was unable to fix the problem,now yesterday i went to install another left hand switch & it would not work,i am having the exact same problem as the other switch,if i use a screw driver on the cherry switch,it would work in both directions,but only if i pulled down on the lever,my question is if i take the cherry switches out of another switch { I only have extra right hand switches that i will not be using } & install them into the problem left hand switch,will this solve the problem?,i think i can do this without any problem,other than that,i don't know what else I can do,unless someone knows what part i need then maybe i could order it & put it in myself,as far as having someone else repair it i don't think it is worth the expense. Thanks for any help you can give me.
