Hey,
The button for mains hook up does not stick down, so won't run on mains hook up unless we tape the button down. It sounds like puling the fridge and getting the switches out is tricky, and I don't want to steal the mechanism off one of the other buttons as I want the full flexibility. So is there another way to fix the switch? Or can you buy replacement switches?
Thanks,
Chris

Re: Non sticky buttons on the fridge on my Westfalia
I removed my fridge a few weeks ago to do the fan mod. Whilst it was out I wanted to fix my buttons as well. The buttons are easy to remove there's only 2 screws holding the 3 buttons to the top of the fridge.
I just used WD40 Electrical contact spray to clean the inside of the switch unit. Mine was also missing a spring from one of the buttons so replaced that also. Pulling the fridge isn't all that hard to be fair. Now Ive done it I could possibly do it in 10mins. Hope you get it sorted mate
