[Peugeot-L] 505 ECO and Recirc Push Button Repair

Do you have the recalcitrant button syndrome....you know...it wont stay down or up when you want it to?
It can't be repaired ( well... maybe with epoxy and some microscopic sculpturing)but the panel can easily be taken apart and the stubborn button replaced, they are interchangeable. It all comes beautifully apart. The problem is the plastic track molded on the sideface of the button where a metal disc with a tiny pin must follow the track. The metal pin is harder than the plastic .....and over time with abuse the pin wears down the track. I saw this under the microscope! If yours is working, don't abuse the button, rather work it slowly, hitting the button fast will eat up the plastic. If anyone is interested I will post some pics.
