Hello,

i've replaced my micro switches lately.

I recommend not to do it yourself if you don't have very good soldering skills and tools and no experience in soldering SMD parts.

This is a good explanation how to do it if you hae soldering experience:



But i would recommend to use a desoldering pump.

Regards, Markus

Thank yoiu Thank you

Thanks for the responses with links. I knew there had to be threads. Doesn't appear that Mouser stocks that switch any longer. But, its a start.

Thanks again,
Joe

Update and close thread

The video link in this thread from Markus Smallblock454 is from Batee.com they offer a complete kit with 3 micro switches, a new battery, and solder for 19.95 including shipping. You know, I don't need all that, but I like their service of providing the kit and video and at that price, I'd spend more on time searching than I could save. I rewarded them with an order. I'll use the battery and other switches on another project. Good for them.

Thanks again fellas,
Joe
