Hello,

My roadblasters arcade left special weapons gun stopped working and it looks like I need a new switch button assembly. Can anyone hook me up?

Much appreciated :)
 
Having the same issue with my vindicators wepaon button which I believe is the same as roadblasters. You can buy NOS switches for $15 or if you can find a late 90's Dell AT101W computer keyboard or one like it you can take a switch off that and use it. They are the same buttons called Alps buttons. Do a google search and you will find that info, I am in the process of trying to track down an old keyboard from friends or a second hand store. If you do find one then you will have lots of spare buttons if needed in the future:)
 
there are two types of road blasters controlers.. One uses star wars style micro switch buttons(black thumb buttons), the other uses vidicators style buttons (red thumb buttons).

here is a link to the other thread about vinidcators buttons...

You can probably find a thread about star wars buttons. Maybe someone has a link to buy the correct mini micro switches or replacement thumb buttons. But if your search leads to RAM CONTROLS, you need to do a bunch more reading as to why not to go there..
