How’s the aftermarket switch working after this amount of time?

Nicely done video. A question was asked about how the aftermarket switch was working. It appears you answered, but I don’t understand it….. “I issues so far”????? Can you try the answer again?

I bought the same switch and it's leaking. I tried plumber's tape and still leaking. What type of sealant were you going to use had it leaked?

[@retrotechandelectronics]

I’d use ptfe tape, same as you. Check the fitting for damage.
