Hi everyone, I have an Onkyo DX2500 CD player that needs a new micro-switch that detects the position of the CD tray arm. I have the Service Manual and the part number needed is 25065321, (NMS-1113, Microswitch-Black), same as for the DX3500 and others. I do have a larger microswitch from a turntable, but really it's nearly twice the size and requires a fairly firm push to switch on/off. This Onkyo is a fine sounding little player and I'd love to get it up and running again, it's basically mint. Thanks a bunch if anyone knows where I can source one or two of these switches.

Look for 'Micro switch * mm x * mm x * mm', with NO /NC switching.
Quite common, they look a bit like mouse switches.
There is an Indian company Gilard, and I think Cherry also makes them, among other makers.
Mouser and their competitors would have in stock.
Proximity types are sometimes seen in equipment.
Different types of actuator, and side or end operated type are available.

Hello DrDetail
Can you post some pictures of the switch? Maybe I have such switch in stock.
Kind Regards

Hi Phil, thanks very much for your reply, but damn, I may have thrown it out! It's been a while after we moved house. What I can do though is take a macro photo of the little support block with a small ruler beside it and give you an idea of size. Does that help?
Hi again, Phil, I kept it! In a box of opamps, so here are three pics that I hope are good enough, not the best of lighting conditions. It's only a tiny switch,
only 10mm by a few deep. Cheers.

Many others sell this kind of switch, cost is low.
No ties to seller.

Thank you, sir, it will be handy to have a few of them. I presume that maybe many CD players use pretty much the same item, or similar.
