    Sansui R-30 Speaker switch!

    I bought this R30 because someone had knocked the speaker selector. Opening it I realized that the contacts in the switch are broken so it does not make contact. Any idea how I should bridge the switch by wiring it or ideas on how to restore the tracks?

    Switches- best lubricant - home made.

    Push pull switches. When servicing can anyone advise on best lubricant for these switches in vintage amps. Ideally, a homemade recipe as I just need to disassemble and regrease one switch. Can petroleum jelly be used? Thanks in advance.
