    Need Parking Brake Repair Suggestions

    Hi All - I have to find a viable solution or fix for the broken contact bridge (NLA) on my parking brake lever light indicator switch. I have posted this thread to our brethren on Pelican.
    Name: 100_7263.jpg Views: 76 Size: 58.6 KB
    I considered soldering, but feel it would be too brittle/fragile & wouldn't stand any sort of repeated use of the brake lever. Trying to find a type of "springy" copper with the metallurgical properties necessary for said repeated actions & can be fashioned into a dimensionally similar strip, has me stymied.

    Could anyone please steer me towards the right direction or have any suggestions as how to apply a workable fix to my problem. Thanks in advance

    Cheers
    JB

    The spring is available separately amazingly enough.
