Easy, efficient, and clean switch repair (at least as clean and efficient as we can resonnably do with standard spare parts). Good job ^^

Thank you for the pointer towards the Arcolectric switch. I just replaced the power switch in my own Mark III, although I had to gently file the top case so that the new rocker switch could move freely. Really enjoying it.

Great video! This was really helpful for me. I ended up getting the same switch as you, but it was a little too high for the case to fit properly, causing th ebutton t be difficult to switch properly. I ended up sanding down the case just a little bit and now it works perfectly!! Thanks so much!

Nice to see you getting back into the video making groove.

Thanks. My wife and I had a baby, so you know the rest of that story.... no time. I'm slowly getting back into videos now.

[@Heru3005]

I know exactly how that is man. My wife and I also had another baby a few months ago... plus 2 teenagers already. Not enough hours in the day!

Heru3005 Two teenagers and a newborn? That’s a long break between drinks!

[@Heru3005]

Haha! Tell me about it dude! I like to look at it as an opportunity to apply all i learned from the older ones so this one might turn out a little less eff'd up lol.

Great job 😀

Nice replacement switch looks new

It's also worth noting that the original SG-1000 and SG-1000 II use the exact same switch so this fix would apply to those as well.

Got the same mat, but mine has little flaps on top of some of the compartments, to close them off. A bit of a pain to clean though.

[@NiGHTS1980]

I want a Mark III. :-(

[@JohnGotts]

Add some heat shrink.
