Thanks for the idea, but that's not the problem. It's an internal problem- probably some little piece of plastic has broken and the rocker part has moved away from its proper position.

Most likely it's the plastic piece that supports the bottom of the spring. That's what happened to mine.

Can that be fixed w crazyglue, or is it under too much tension for that to work?

I took the switch apart and found that the cast metal piece had separated from the stamped sheet metal to which it is attached. I reattached it with crazy glue but the switch still won't work properly.

I'm going to do a search for Bosch switches, as I can't see installing another one of these pieces of junk
