[C320-list] Vberth light switch replacement

[Wash, Steve]

Hi Irv,

I did.  Both failed at the same time ... I think it was due to corrosion.

I found a drop in switch at Mouser.com.  Search for: 112-R13-66D  This switch is much better constructed than the original.
 Our hull is 1029 and the lights are round, with a long, cylindrical bulb.  The switch is 3 position ... RED - OFF - WHITE.

It took about 30 minutes to fix both.  

Steve #1029

Has anyone replaced the switch for the V Berth light?
Where did you get the switch? And how much was it?
What was involved in replacing it?
Was it worth the effort re the Led fixture replacement of a recent post?
