Luxman Rx 102 Suckface

I have a broken stop switch on the servo drive unit of a Luxman RX 102. Does anybody have a known source for this part? Is there a substitute available? Thanks.

It's a leaf switch isn't it? I don't know any source for leaf switches but Digikey has all kinds of micro switches. If you can figure out a place to mount it you should be able to find something that works. They have switches with long levers that actuate the switch:

Here's another that may work. Keep Goggling on leaf switch until you find one that looks like it.

I`ll be watching this thread as I just revived one from the half dead and it sounds great . The suckface is dead though . I hope I learn something .

Suckface repair

It really sucks! I was putting the repaired sucking mechanism back into it's bracket when one of the wires broke off the pin on the switch. Discouraged but undaunted, I drilled a tiny hole in the switch near the broken pin and was able to solder a wire to the switch contact inside the switch.

Then ANOTHER wire broke, and this time I couldn't fix it. I'm going to try and substitute another microswitch here, but a lesson was learned: a drop of five minute epoxy securing the three wires to the case of the switch would have prevented this and I'd be NOT WRITING THIS POST.
