Oh, I know I have a problem. You should see the closet in my game room. As for whether they make noise or not, I dunno, as I haven't seen them in a while. They're in that closet...

Did you do any work on this or ... ?

Paladin:

does anyone know how I can what to hook each of the 3 wires to?  I have a multimeter, but to be honest the only thing I know how to do with it is check continuity (no manual).

I am wondering how to tell which wires to hook to what to test this switch out.  5V, ground and button - what readings can I use to figure it out?  Will I burn it up if I apply 5V to the wrong wire?

whammoed:

I contacted Xerox parts about this part and they will sell it individually.  They called it a "photoswitch"
price: $22.15  :o :o :o :o
yeah, I only need over $800 to upgrade the switches on my 3 sided cocktail. ::)
I would still like to know who makes this part though.  Is NAC the manufacturer or what?  I know the 130k26080 is the xerox part number.
