Are you sure it`s the switch

Common fault on older timerwolfs was the relays

 

Most switches on these machines are common 12v auto parts , try some auto factors?

feed roller would reserve not forward with mine........it was the relays. make sure the relays are a tight fit

Having similar trouble on my 9(!) year old Entec 35DH/150. timberwolfparts.co.uk (Orange Plant) supplied new contact (switch behind buttons) and relay. Now goes forward...after a tap with hammer... from above, not the side! Will order new contact for remaining buttons to bypass the tapping requirement as soon as I'm working in an area with reception. Good luck.

orange plant no longer sell the relays there are two types.

 

They might have some knocking about if not you will have to buy the new style switch box.

 

same prob i got brand new switches prob sorted

I understand that a switch is a switch, but who says they don't make a switch anymore. I'd try alternatives like automotive switchs fitted to a different bracket. Try RS Electricals .co.uk(?). We have used various switcheas and latching devices in different applications and a switch is a switch, the bracket makes it fit!
