Dual CS 505-2 turntable switch

[JohnO88]

I'm looking to identify the type of switch shown in picture, it's some sort of micro switch used to actuate motor. It is depressed when tone arm is moved into position.
It was stuck when I opened up turntable, freed it up and applied some switch and contact cleaner but no joy.
Where can I get my hands on one of these?

That is a snap action switch, I doubt spraying cleaner into it helped. Marquardt still makes switches, the closest I can see is the 1019.0301 or 1019.5101

you also need to replace the cracked RIFA capacitor before it catches fire.

Surely you can find something suitable here.

Contact the company and ask them, maybe they will just send you one.
Mouser.co.uk has this open style of the switch in stock, 1019.0101 (979-1019.0101)
They list the 1019.5101, but non-stock and a minimum of 400

Dual 249 350 Mikroschalter, yours is the Marquardt 1019.6203
I could not find anything. It's used in a few models. Usually the microswitch body is a standard configuration and the terminals are the many variants and here it looks like right angle PCB mount which is unpopular. Note the PC board has provision for a bigger part.

People put in a lever-arm version and bent it: https://www.vinylengine.com/turntabl...ic.php?t=65873
Could ask Dual-Parts.com
