Hi all,

I need to replace a Micro switch in my Sankyo 600.

It is a Matsushita Made in Japan Am47008
Has to be the type without the lever as projector has the levers.

I actually found exact one I need, but my Portuguese is not good, anyone understand what this site is, a Brazilian Version of EBay?

Thanks hopefully in advance

Yes, ebay in Brazil. Use Google translate for details. Four switchs for about GBP6.
Beware of Brazilian snail mail..... still using canoes and forked sticks! I know because my son lives there.

Thanks for reply and info Martin.

Funny I did try to google translate page and when it had finished it lost that page and went to other items for sale, anyway I don't need 4 of them.

What people want to post these is unreal, found a used one in USA and he wants $24.95 postage to Australia, we're talking about something no thicker than 10mm here.

EVen a company that sells them out of their Tawaian factory wanted $45 US, sheesh.

Anyway I found these and although part number slightly different going by the voltage and measurements seller gave me, they should do the job, Only need to replace one, other one sounds fine, but I am getting 2 just in case.

Ironic that the one I don't need, for the Lamp,. oh I can find plenty of them! Go figure!

Cheers
Phil

Outstanding job hunting down that part Phil [Smile]

If and when mine goes out...I'll know what to look for. Keep us posted on the installation.

Thanks Janice. How's things, ,cold here in Melbourne 2c and heavy fog, hard to type on keyboard. Fingers are cold, ah well it is winter down here.

Yeah very hard to track down is right, but I am one who keeps persisiting.

This is other company I found them on and they actually look exactly the same, but cheapest postage to Australaia was $45 US$, which to me is way steep for something 10mm thick and 20mm or so in height.

Anyway might assit you in case you ever need to replace one.

The two I ordered from Ebay seller, are the way, be surprised if I get it before next week sometime, which is fine.

I'll keep you updated.

Cheers
Phil
