Hi everybody, I broke a switch on my Elmo SC-30 and I'm looking for any advice on how to replace it. I was wondering if anyone had any information about the types of switches that in these 2 projectors that switch the source from Mag to Optical.

I looked inside the projector and the three switches on the front of the projector look liked 3 normal push button momentary switches - 1 for Mag soundtracks - which is the broken one and is stuck on, another for PA for use with a microphone., and then a switch for optical soundtracks. I'm assuming the GS-800 has the same kind of switches - but I have a GS-1200 not an 800.

I've seen quite a few in just a short google search that resemble this one (spring loaded, push button micro switch) but I'm not sure how many pins it has or what the electrical specifics. Here's some photos from inside and outside.

Thanks in advance
