Need to purchase SMD Tactile Switch(es)

One of the SMD Tactile Switches broke and I need to purchase one to repair it. I have an SMD soldering air station, but I need to know where to find this type of SMD switch. I've looked at my most common parts websites but no luck. The closest I could find are the type "ITT Cannon KSS Tactile Switch SPST-NO KSS221G". It is a 4-lead surface mount with a switch motion parallel to the board (not perpendicular). It is very low profile.

Huawei GE optical port with 1310 SFP module can connect to Cisco 3750X GE ports with GLC-LH-SMD?

The Cisco switch will probably err-disable the port when you plug it in. The workaround is to add these commands:
Switch(config)#service unsupported-transciever
Switch(config)#no errdisable detect cause gbic-invalid
It'll either work or it won't!

Etrex enter button does not work

It may be the tactile switch that is broken. I had the same problem on my older model etrex. I carefully removed the surrounding rubber case wrap and the sticky tape underneath. This allows you to visually inspect the switches. The black plastic button on the enter switch was completely gone and the buttons on the page up/down keys were broken away and loose, although those keys still worked. I opened up the case, removed the switches (largely by using a razor blade to pry them off), and bought 8 replacement switches from mouser (667-EVQ-PSH02K). I replaced the three broken switches using a very fine tip on the soldering iron with flux on all the feet. The extra switches I will keep for further repairs if necessary.

On off button is broken on flat screen monitor f2105

Beverly, F2105 unit will need to be disassembled and new momentary tactile switch soldered in. Check out ALL the different styles and sizes to choose from at digikey.com !!! at least 16 pages of switches to choose from. Then you will need a soldering iron, solder wick, solder, and know how to disassemble unit to replace a $2 to $6 switch. If contracting out the work to competent technician your looking at minimum $45.
Forget fixing the plastic button. Crazy-glue only option there.

Dlp tv wont start up/ switches off

Hi.

This model of LG set does suffer badly with dry joints (these are soldered joints that have oxidised or cracked)

Its not A job that I would recomend you tackle you may need specialised soldering gear when working on smd type ICS.

Try & find repair shop that does free estimates.

If A repair shop states they will repair in the home offer to take it in to them as this is very difficult to repair in the home & you will end up paying more for them to come out then take it away.
