    Replacment switch needed for vintage Onkyo Amplifier A 8690

    Hi guys

    I am still trying to fix this vintage Onkyo Integra Amplifier model A 8690.

    It's turned into a bit of a restoration problem. The problem is bad contacts in the Tone Direct switch. The amplifier will work fine but drops the audio from one channel or the other at random and waggling the Tone Direct switch fixes the problem - for a while.

    I tried to dismatle the amplifier so i could get contact cleaner into the switch. That went OK but then the big issue I had with this were the old ribbon cable connectors that would no longer grip the ribbons once I disassembled the amplifier to get to the switch.

    So I had to replace all the old connectors with new ones, soldering proper plugs onto the ribbons and sockets to the PCBs. The good news is the Amplifier still works after this but the bad news is trying to clean the switch did not help At least it is easy to take apart and put back together now.

    Anyway it seems i need a new switch but I am strucggling to find these old switches

    The service manual says it is switch S353 type NRSM-183-25SS Rotary.

    Anyone know these vintage amps who could advise me?

    Service manual attached

    Cheers
    Richard

    Alps vintage wafer switch 2 pole 12 position
    by DrDos
    I have the schematic of the kenwood I am working on. It shows the wafer switch which is the on/off - A speakers - B speakers - A + B speaker switch. I don't trust the wiring
    because it doesn't seem to add up for me. If I can identfy at least one of the pins I should be able to rewire it correctly or at least make sure it currently wired correctly but I don't know how to find this out. Pictures are in my thread "trying to refurbish and repair my kenwood kr-6030. I would appreciate the help.

    Micro Momentary Push Switch?
    by Natob82
    Great to be here! I'm a newbie here trying to find a "micro", momentary push switch to repair a Sony "clamshell" video walkman. This micro switch has long since discontinued by Sony, however I hope there are third-party switches of the same size and functionality that I might be able to source to play the same role. The purpose of this switch is to tell the video walkman that the user has activated the mechanical tape eject button, turning that physical action into an electronic signal that tells the tape transport mechanism to open so one can load or eject a video tape. I...

    NEC TurboExpress On/Off Power Switch Replacement Help
    by grimacelord
    Hello,

    I've been working on a NEC TurboExpress and I accidentally got the plastic inside the power ON/OFF switch too hot while doing other repairs and melted it. At first, it would still power on when sliding the switch, but you had to really press inward while sliding to get it to work.

    I removed the switch component and tried to gently melt the plastic back so it would work more reliably and all I managed to do was make it worse.

    I need to find a replacement On/OFF switch for this, but having some trouble figuring out which kind of switch I need....

    Help making a switch work the opposite way with a relay
    by SluggerB
    I have a very small float switch, I'm using in a very small tank. It only fits in one way. Link https://www.amazon.com/uxcell-Switch.../dp/B07DZ1J2GB

    I want the switch to be open when the water is high, and closed when the water is low. Unfortunately it works the opposite. And since this switch is designed to be underwater, it's all sealed up, there is no taking it apart or hacking it up.

    It will be driving a water pump, basic idea, when the water is low, switch closes, which turns on water pump, when enough water is in the tank, float switch floats,...
