You're right they are dirty.  I never quite understand why people rebuild
these switches.  I find it annoying enough when I put a new one in that I
have little enthusiasm for going back and redoing it when my rebuilding job
fails again (usually in about 3 mos.)  I bite the bullet go to the archives
shop for a switch, buy it, and install it.  Finished business-for about 5
years when it fails again. And, when it does (and it will), repeat above
procedure <grin>
