Wanted: Commodore mouse microswitches

Chaps,

Do any of you know where I can buy a few of the following four pin switches used in the Amiga tank mouse?

Attachment 16118

I will happily make a donation should any member have a few spare.

Many thanks

You can use some clean contact spray (for computer/electric compoments) direclty on the switches.

this clean contact spray repair my wizard microswitches and my df1: switch inside the drive for floppy protected or not.

put the spray on and move the switch and make more times and wait a little and test again.

tested myself and verified !!!! ;-)

hope that help. bye.

BTW this type of switch is known as a Tact(ile) Switch, it isn't a microswitch. If you've had trouble finding these then it's probably because you didn't know what they're called not because they are hard to find, any decent electronics shop should have them, even Maplin's
