Whoever designed this damn switch should be fired and sent to the gut lag. What a horrible design. Springs and ball bearings don't stay in place and keeps falling into the dial cavity. No wonder nobody likes these switches. I would have fired the guy on the spot as soon as I tried to assemble one of these switches.
Had the same problem. Glad I found this video. Thanks for posting
Thanks for sharing this video, I did not know what was inside. I also just had one fail.
Time to buy a new one.
The way you fix a Perko switch is easy. Toss it into the trash can and get a Blue Seas switch.
LOL. You solved it, but you sure as heck mangled the housing to death after drilling out the rivets.
