hey guys. i have been working on this haunted house machine and i noticed the weak flipper is being caused by the end of stroke swtich, but the contact on that flipper is ready to snap off......everytime i bend it back, it will work but its so close to breaking the contact that it just bends it back again

im sure a new contact will work but my question is will any contact work? another one from a gottlieb game? it just looks like a normal contact with a small lead coming off the end to solder the red wire to.
now that i think about it, im sure i have to get a contact that is the same length........

for parts i have a gottlieb skyjump and a jurassic park playfield, do you think contacts off them would work....
 
don't think so as microswitches are low voltage and coils (eos) have higher voltage (50 - 60v)
it could work temporary until you order a new one but it's not a long lasting solution
