The cursed enclosure that claims all who enter has done it again (he says, shifting blame from himself)!
ARGH!
Excited to finally get this nightmare build fixed and boxed up, I must have tightened the nut a bit too much. It didn't seem like I was applying any extra force, but then I heard an awful cracking sound.
Sure enough, the switch was now intermittent and only worked if held the right way (I've had one other switch fail this way after a year of use, but not while tightening).
The good news is I had bought a few extra, just in case, so it was simple enough to replace (and, as per the above image, it came out in more pieces than it went in with).
Be careful and don't let your overzealous caveman paws get too carried away, lest you end up like me!
