Chipping away at the restoration of the 45C. One of the 1st things I checked was the on-off switch. It wouldn't switch on, so I knew I'd have to pull it and work on it. This switch, as far as I can tell, is not a Philco original part. I disconnected everything, and pulled it. I had to open it up to get access to the switch mechanism. I've had this cleaner for years, and it works great! A couple small squirts inside, and working the switch back and forth, got it working again.
