Rocker Switch needed
 

Hey Guys. I have a '93 Z212 Shabah and one of my rocker switches is jammed in the off positon and of course it is the switch for the bilge pump. Thankfully the auto blige works fine and the boat doesn't take on any water, but still.

Does anyone know either how to get the thing un-jammed or where I can get a single matching switch?

Thanks!!!

There are quite a few threads here discussing replacement of those switches and ColoradoDiablo has said before "you can pick up those switches all day long on eBay"...

Have a look at these threads:

One othe question...does anyone know how to remove them? It looks like the snap in and out, but any know tricks to get it out would be helpful. THanks!

Tabs top and bottom.
I have used a butter knife with great success to release one end , then the other.
Just need to keep constant pressure pushing out on the switch assembly.
Carling also makes a special tool for the switches mounted in their "panel mount".

Thanks ColoradoDiablo...I think i will try the butter knife route lol. Wesmor also got back to me from his thread. So I'm going to pick a switch up from him I think.

Thank you for all of your help guys...now if all this snow and cold would just go away up here in Chicago so I can get my boat out and start enjoying it again.:):)
