WOW! this might explain why my switch is doing nothing in forward -
it's actually operating correctly! Time for another test - and
maybe I can ditch my silly "get me by for now" rigged switch.
Raining today to I guess I gotta try the prop turning test. I
didn't even bother connecting the old switch back up, just assumed if
it wasn't lighting up in forward it was a dead. This is
encouraging. Although I'm actually half way done with my attempt
at molding a new plastic piece - haha! Mainly an experiment
really, but if all goes right I might end up with a spare switch, and
an option for replacing future breaking plastic parts. We'll see.
