Marantz 2230 replacement Power Switch.. Does it have to be from a 2230?

[Gridslayer]

I'm looking for a replacement power switch for a 2230. Does it have to be from a 2230, or are any of the ones I see on ebay a viable replacement?

thanks

At the suggestion of Echowars, I bought this new switch from Digi-Key for my 2270. It costs a screaming $2.42 plus shipping. I believe this same part works fine for the 2230 and likely other 22XX receivers. Since I also have a 2230 and a 2252B, I bought 3 of them and am keeping the others for the day when the 2230 or 2252B need a new power switch.

You'll probably want to replace the cap across the switch at the same time. Here's what I ordered from Digi-Key for $0.62 each.

My 2270 is not accessible right now but I think I jumpered across the two parts of the switch to double the current rating of the switch. Look for threads here on AK about this for more information.

Wow, that's good to know! I hope my tech hasn't bought the one from Canada for $24 on ebay yet, I'll let him know.

That's very helpful.... thanks!!! :yes:

Happy to help. Echowars was the one who knew all about this so I'm just passing his wisdom along.

Hey if it is fixed right who cares?

I have used that switch but needed a new cap.

I just bought mine for my 2270 from an AK member.
This is the second or third time I've bought his products.
Always fit perfect and always shipped super quick.
