Which tactile switch is this?

[Jackching]

It has an "S" and "32" on the back of it. I pulled it from my vhf mic and it's testing bad. I dont know which new one to purchase because i don't know what to go off of. Can anyone tell me how to find the type and size of it?

measure it with calipers

That is a very common (6mm) right-angle PCB mount tactile switch. Everyone makes one, critical is the button length. Some manufacturers spec H to the middle of the switch, not the back, so be careful.
My last order of some was Aliexpress Javino Store and I was happy with them. E-Switch melt too easily, Omron is the best quality.

Ok. On digikey i see they include voltage and amps in their descriptions. Should i consider this?

No, it is not important because these switches are only used for low power. The button length and mounting pins (2 or 4) are important to check.
Filter: Mounting Style, Through Hole, Right Angle.

Now all i need are calipers. I dont think the measuring tape will work hehe

So on Digikey, I'm assuming H = Actuator Length, Right Angle in the filters section?

Has anyone seen something like these switches?
The base is not plastic but of a PCB board. Instead of legs, there are 4 semi-holes. The metal membrane has a hole in the middle. The button base (pcb) has in the center what looks like pads for a LED (unpopulated and at the moment can't really remember the exact trace routing ) hence the metal membrane with the hole.
The top button part is rubber and covers the whole base.
The switches are from a mid 2000 MAN truck (VAG).
The base size was something like 8x8mm or 10x10mm, unfortunately I forgot to measure them and currently are not with me.
Will it be possible to buy new ones?

I do not remember ever seeing replacements for this type of switch before and I cannot tell you how to search for them unfortunately

This similar thing but I am sure that they are exactly the same type
