On my 12v distribution panel (ESW 201) I have a broken rocker switch. I have managed to swap it for one of the spare unused ones and all is ok.
I have searched extensively for a new replacement but no luck.
Does anyone know where I can obtain one.
I guess my last resort would be to go direct to Bavaria.
Thanks
I've searched for your ESW 201 panel to see what they look like, perhaps like the one in this (http://www.bavariayacht.info/forum/index.php/topic,1459.msg8356.html#msg8356) post?
The switches look similar to Marquardt Series 1900 (https://www.marquardt-shop.com/products/switches/rocker-switches/1900.html). I started with Marquardt as they make the switches on my boat.

That is a picture of my panel I posted a couple of weeks ago.
I had already checked out E T A who make my switches. However, at over ?20 I think that is a tad expensive.
As suggested I will look at Marquardt .
Thanks
So you know the manufacturer of the switch? That would have been useful to know!
Are you sure, as ETA (http://www.e-t-a.co.uk/home/) seem to make breakers, not switches.
Marquardt are very helpful and will identify a switch from a few pictures, taken from front, top and bottom.
The manufacturer is ETA, Germany. However, the prices they are charging seem excessive when compared to similar switches from other manufacturers.
I have checked out Marquardt. They seem to have a wide choice but all of them are the wrong size.
I will keep on searching.
Thanks for your help

Got a link to the part?
I googled the component number. ETA 3030 F110.
This was stamped on the side of the switch.
I can only find the 3130 (http://www.e-t-a.co.uk/products/circuit_protection_devices/thermal_overcurrent_circuit_breakers/p/3130-f/). However, if the 3030 is also a thermal magnetic breaker, rather than a simple "rocker switch", that explains the cost.
Please share the link of the one you found so others can benefit.
Oops. Typo. I meant 3130.
But you are correct. I hadn't looked further into the item. I just assumed it was a simple switch. As you say, that will explain the cost.
This is the item http://www.e-t-a.co.uk/products/circuit_protection_devices/thermal_overcurrent_circuit_breakers/p/3130-f/ (http://www.e-t-a.co.uk/products/circuit_protection_devices/thermal_overcurrent_circuit_breakers/p/3130-f/)
Yes, these are resetable fuses/switches, so check that the one you took from the spare circuit matches the value of the broken one (or at least close enough) - if I remember correctly they span in values from 5-20Amps
