Lets think - sometimes these take longer than the switches - would a fiver be too much including postage back?

When I first got my omega the fob (egg shaped) didn't work so took it apart & found dry joints on the 4 connections of 1 micro switch. So got a small electric soldering iron wrapped a small piece of copper wire round the end 15 mm sticking out, tinned it & touched the 4 connections, job done ::) but I know if I were to fix someone else's then it would all go pear shaped :-[
