  • Expobar Minore IV Power switch broken

    Hi All,

    The power switch for my steam boiler has seized and I think melted.

    I am looking at performing a DIY surgery on it.

    Just wondering where people buy their parts from. Prices seem to vary wildly, and a lot of places seem out of stock.

    Also, am I dreaming thinking this will be a pretty easy operation?

    You can buy them from RS Components, part number 879-8257.

    Make sure the spade terminals are clean and making good contact with the switch otherwise it'll fail again pretty quickly.

    Hi Guys,

    I need as much help as i can get.
    Posted the other day about my power switch breaking, so I sourced the part. However, after taking apart the machine today I realized that the main power switch and the second boiler switch are different. I went to jaycar to see if they had a similar switch and got the one pic attached plus new terminals.

    Now, before potentially electrocuting I want to ask some questions of the brains trust:
    1. Have I bought a compatible switch
    2. Should I replace all terminals
    3. What do i plug in to what
    3. Is this something better left to professionals

    Thanks!
