Perfect fit
Fast shipping, great lady I spoke with, price was right. Fit and repaired my 12 gallon Ridged shop vac even though my original switch was out of production. This switch is spot on.

Shop vac toggle switch
Before ordering the replacement switch I check a "how to" video to see if an ordinary person could make the repair. The part was a perfect fit. The shop vac is back in business. By the way it is 24 years old and still going strong.

The original manufacturer said that this was no longer available--yet here was an exact replacement at Replacement Parts! It arrived quickly in great protective packaging. Works just like it should.

Made sure vacuum was unplugged before beginning. Took the top of the vacuum off. Removed the four screws underneath holding it together. Pulled motor off shroud. Pulled off two wires to switch. Squeezed tabs to release old switch. Threw it away. Pushed in new switch till it popped into place. Replugged in wires into new switch. Lined up motor to screw holes on top. Screwed it back in. Locked top back onto vacuum container. Plugged it in. Switched it on and vacuumed up my mess. Really straight forward

Replaced the off and on switch. It was a little difficult to take switch assembly apart. Used a little straight edge screwdriver to get it to come apart. Lined up toggle switch and replaced it. Lined up vacuum switch pieces and pushed together. Installed switch in vacuum by taking it apart to have room to plug in wires on switch. Then assembled vacuum
