If BC works and SW doesn't, there are two likely culprits. The first being the bandswitch, and the other being the oscillator. Oscillators sometimes work on one band and not the other, usually due to failed or out of tolerance components.
I recommend starting with the bandswitch. Try ohming out the connections that go through the bandswitch when SW is selected. Readings of more than a couple of ohms are an indication of a problem.
