Watch ebay as a last resort. Have seen them for 50$ there. New ones can be found there for 120$

Ouch, no thanks. They can be found local usually for less than $10. There seem to be a shortage as of late tho :(

If you do find one why not pull the old one apart to see what failed. Might just be a broken piece of plastic that JB weld or Gorilla super glue (like it better on plastics than the generic super glues) can repair. Keep it as a spare. Good luck in any case

Thanks Gwenethh, will do. Funny thing I went through this with my 92. I even did a write up on how to modify the post 92s for auto up/down but I can't find it. IIRC the old one couldn't be fixed that's why I had to go post 92.

Thanks for looking into it. I made an offer on one and got it for $38. I'm a smoker so this is a must have. Would like to have waited for a less expensive one but I don't want my svx getting stinky. :barf:

If someone finds the cure for making them Auto Up I wold like the instructions. With a 5 speed it is a problem not having the auto up. Toll booth, drive up windows etc.. Especially in the rain shifting and driving is tough.

Be careful with taking apart the unit. Make sure you dont need it to go back into the car if you do decide to disassemble.

Between the little spring for the lock mechanism and the bits of tired brittle plastic for the rockers, you really need to be careful when messing with the master switch.

It looks like the new one I got from ebay is a little different. I decided to take apart the old one to find out what's wrong. The top half of the switch is fine, it's the tiny internal part that malfunctioned. There are 2 diodes that need to be unsoldered to see what's going on :mad: So the hunt for a replacement is still on.
