    Hello,

    After some research and asking allot of questions on another forum.
    I guess must be one of these switches:

    Could somebody please confirm which one to buy.
    So i can fix my precious Qtron.

    Thnx

    After some rechecking, the rotary switch is PCB mount.
    Does somebody has an idea where to get one?

    Thnx

    are you deadset on having it be a rotary switch? depending on the number of pulls/throws, you could probably just replace it with a slide, toggle or even a stomp switch. just have to be okay with wiring stuff from the pcb hole to the switch- it’s not likely you’ll find a NOS replacement for it.

    You need the proper schematic to know which switch you need, from there, you can buy it from small bear or other places.

    I hope to keep the Q-Tron in the original state…
    So i like to replace the broken switch with the original one…
    And a On-On switch … wouldn’t be the same.

    But…

    But where to get the proper schematic.
    I mailed EHX … but no help.
    I’m sure they know what switch they put in the pedal i have.
    Also mailed their European service center, but no response.

    I think they only want to repair/service new type Q-Trons.
    Probably more revenue on a recent type Q-Tron???????????????????????

    A disappointed customer.
