Need Switch Contacts Source

I am rebuilding an EICO 950B Capacitor Tester and ran into a problem. Some of the switch contacts on S1 (switch 1–Range Switch) are broken and not usuable. I want to rebuild this switch but can’t find any source for the contacts. Does anyone happen to know of a seller that might have these? Thanks!!

I have never ran across a current production part that would replace those old switch types. Your best bet is probably finding new old stock parts or a similar style switch you could use or modify.

This may be obvious, but have you tried looking at refurbishment videos on youtube to see if there are any that you think might have info on getting the switch you are looking for? Someone who is doing the same work as you might have insight into how to source repair parts.

Thanks for the reply. I’ve looked and can’t locate anything. Oh well, I’ll keep searching. Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I check each time I see anything on the 950B. I’d hate to have to buy a “parts only” unit but it might have to come to that. Thanks
