Where can I find (buy) replacement switch? Mine now has the same problem (can’t turn it completely off).
Cambridge Azur 851A Problem! Help!!
I just sold my 851 and the buyer sent me a video of the toggle on/off switch on the back is in the "ON" position and won't stay in the "Off" position. B ut it is powered "ON". I never had a problem with it before. What could it be??It doesn't make sense.. I doesn't have any speakers hooked up to it because he says" He's in between speakers right now.????

Measure the rectangle cutout size and find the correct replacement spst rocker switch. https://www.parts-express.com/electronic-parts/switches/rocker-switches |
Update to anyone that cares, the replacement switch lasted less than a year. My unit is not abused, it only gets used maybe once per week so I’m not “wearing it out”. Always the same: rocker switch will not click fully in the “off” mode to completely turn off the unit so it doesn’t sit there generating heat even when not in use. While yes it is an easy fix, it’s annoying as hell to have to pull it out, take off the top panel and futz with the switch repeatedly. What’s odd is if I pull the switch out of the panel slightly (leave it protruding out the back rather than locking it in place), it will work (solid, audible click and power goes off). I’m wondering if the factory hole in the panel needs to be ever so slightly enlarged as it may be too tight on the little toggle switch preventing it from working correctly? Anyone else have similar experience? BTW, I still LOVE the tone out of this thru my HPM-150’s! Seems like a great marriage of old and new technology. |
