36 Ford Radio On/Off Switch

[Gary Tosel]

Has anyone found a source for the 36 Ford Philco radio head on/off switch?


I have three radio heads that click like on/off but do not work. I have taken them apart and find it is the most complicated switch to perform on/off operation.


The weak link is the fiber switch lever that wears out on the pivot end and will not allow the rotary switch to make contact. I am in process of replacing that part, but it is really difficult to complete.


Let us know if there are new or replacement switches available.


Thanks
