Sounds pretty simple, but annoying. Bad batch of parts.

Post by: Crissa on December 18, 2020, 12:33:53 PM: A switch only takes a few minutes to actually swap, doesn't it? I mean, there's the whole it needs a bay, you have to take the lever apart, not drop the little springs, and so it takes time prepping and testing but... Seems like it should be an in and out thing, like a oil change.
