When attempt to start my starboard engine I have to depress and wiggle the button to engage the starter. the first on position is solid but the momentary push is soft and doesn't always make contact. Obviously, the switch is going bad so what do I get to replace it? I have looked online and am confused as to what rocker combination I need . I think the down position should be OFF, the center position should be ON, and the top position should be ON MOMENTARY, correct? I can't seem to find that switch, any suggestion?
Thanks

Looked on their site didn't find what I thought I needed, but didn't pursue it. Hope they respond to you. Thanks ahead of time for sharing the reply.

The rocker switches in my boat disassemble easily and the contact points can be cleaned.
