If you have found a supply of original button switches please share! I get a call for them nearly once a week! As far as I know there are no user replaceable parts available to buy for that stick.

There is one from RS people have said works but it looks nothing like the originals.

I think they pull out? But there is a PCB board inside there so not sure if there connected to that not.

There easy to open up anyway but I think there some funny headed screws?

Someone from Ireland called fc spares.they assure me the part will fit but I’ve spoken to several other companies who assure me it’s new joystick time at £1125.00 and there is no other option.

Looks close enough to me! Hot glue it in if needed! Dont think they have nuts on inside but could be wrong. Did have a joystick for spares but robbed all buttons out of it and someone wanted the PCB board out of it a couple weeks ago to replace a burnt one in there new Holland so sold it too him. New stick was £900 on that. But I know some jcb ones go up well over 1k!

it is possible to replace the buttons, our friendly local sparkie has a stock of 2nd hand ones from faulty joysticks that have been changed.

total joke that a part costing pennies can be palmed off as needing a replacement £1100+ unit.

There is a similar red button in the cap catalogue but its alot smaller than the hole in joystick.
Hello there,
I have a contact in Rexroth who is able to get me these buttons. They are costing close to 50 Euro though. I already replaced the ones in my TM 320s. They are the original part and have the blue leads on them. you can Wire them directly into the plug or just join the wires. 10 minute job. If you guys want these, drop me a line. I'll buy a bunch of them for stock.

If it is the on push button, not a proportional control knob type of stick like yours, we have used these which screw into the hole, and poke out more than the JCB ones. I prefer using them to the rubbery things
