Sticky Light Switches

[Pearlie]

I have three light switches that are sticky and hard to use on our 09 Everest fifth wheel. How do you get them freed up so they operate more smoothly?

Photos? Are these wall switches? My initial thought is to replace them assuming they are easy to replace. This article might also provide some insight https://paspolini.studio/en/stuck-li...0handling%20it.

Can you post a picture of the switches? That would help identify the type of switch and how to remove them. If they are typical wall mounted switches they can be replaced easily for not a lot of money.

Edir: looks like CampCA and I were thinking alike!

having trouble inserting photo. Its a small whites concave button that clicks up and down. Not the slider type.

Guessing they are double pole momentary-on/off switch like this one available in black and white for ~$22 each.

That would be a slide switch. Most light switches are single pole single throw switches.

When you post go to advanced at the bottom of the window. Then click on the paperclip 📎 icon at the top of the window. Choose the file from your hard drive. Click on upload and save.

Maybe this single SPST On-Off switch for $10:
