Dear Sir=3B
I have broken a trim switch on the yoke of my 500S. I was wondering if some
one might be able to point me in the right direction of finding a replaceme
nt please. The part number is 22048-0001 and it is a electric switch for an
FCS-810 Bendix autopilot. The retail cost of this simple switch is astrono
mical! Anyone that might have a suggestion on where to find a used one of t
hese would be very=2C very much appreciated. I sincerely appreciate any inf
o you might provide and thanks very much for the assistance.

Hi Tommy,
Are you absolutely certain that it's the switch and not the wiring or the
trim servo itself?
If so, is the switch physically damaged or just not making electrical
contact inside? If it's the latter, sometimes a shot of contact cleaner down
inside the mechanism can do wonders!
I was able to find these alternative part numbers for that switch:
Mason 305-4313
King 005-0267-0012
Esterline is a distributor for Mason Switches, and they have a sales desk
that can probably help you find what you need. *Sometimes* if the salesman
is in a good mood, and they have the switch in stock, you can have them send
you a "sample" for no charge. Here's what I found on a page on their web
site:
MASONR Slide Switches
For more information or sales assistance, call us at 818-361-3366 or email
mason.sales@esterline.com.
Here's the actual page with drawings of the 305 series of switches:

I also found a Mason 305-4313 that sold on eBay in December for $52.00, but
there are no other switches currently listed.
Hope this helps,
Stan
