Push button repair

One of the pushbuttons on one of my storage door for the light quit. I couldn't find the same
kind on google so I repaired it. There is quite a few of the pushbuttons in the coach and when
I need to order something from Foretravel I will see if they have them and order a spare.

Peter,

Should be Pollak 52-616. Shop around as I have found them in lots of 5 for cheap.

Idea stolen from the AZ Expert channel on U-toob....switch to the magnetic switches like those for the entry door step...cheaper and more reliable.  Pack of 5 sets on Amazon for $16.  Amazon.com: 5X Normally Closed Normally Open Magnetic Switch Proximity... 

That's my plan when these push-off switches start to fail.
