38-3 Dial question
#10

Gary, thats some project your taking on. Your worse problem is the broken spring type part that held the bb in. Also it looks like that assembly is rivited together. If you can't find a replacement for the spring type piece you could still operate that switch but no "click to let you know when your in each position othere than the on/off "click". I'd recommend that you try to locate a used switch. If you can not locate a new switch you might be able to duplicate it with a two wafer switch. By wiring some terminals together and wiring from one wafer to the other it can function the same. The only draw back is the on/off switch. Wafer switch may not handle power and it would not make/break as quickly which would tend to let it arc. Which ever way you decide, good luck with it. PL
