Roberts R800 switch.
so my old r800 has been sitting on the shelf long enough now with an intermittent on /off switch which ive heard off a few times ,its a rather flimsy design really considering the use it gets ,its a small push on /off effort,why they didnt use a switched pot i will never know,anyway back to the problem,i removed the chassis from the cabinet and tryed some switch cleaner to no avail,the prob is still there ie any slight touch of the switch and the set goes off,so looking at the underside of the circuit board i see only 2 of the switch pins are used (no suprise)so i bridged those with the opposite unused ones and hey presto perfect 1 R800 working as it should
