Hardly the modification of a floppy unit will knack the micro switch. Retry to fix it using a lubricant spray (WD40 or similar) using a tooth stick (spray on the stick and use it in the switch).

Then test the unit again. If no go, it's time to replace the switch. IF you are not able to do, look for someone near who can make it for you.
