Immersion heater switch
« on: June 03 2012, 11:43 »
Does anyone know where I can source a new immersion heater switch?  Ours has become very stiff and it takes a bit of 'jiggling' to persuade the neon to light.  It looks like a pretty specific physical size & shape, so it would be good to get a replacement of the same.

Thanks,

Andy

Hi Tony,

Firstly apologies for the very long delay in replying.  A few squirts of contact cleaner solved the problem for a few months, but really I need a new one now.  Did the RS switch you mentioned fit easily, and were the connectors the same?

Thanks,

Andy
