jcb hammer drill JCBD - HD860K speed control switch?

What appeared to be a well made powerfull drill is let down by a cheap and nasty switch/speed control which failed after the guarantee had expired.

Where can I obtain a replacement Part FA2-6/1BEK

Thankyou

If anyone else stumbles across this topic, as I did when looking for a replacement trigger, you can still obtain a non OEM part (identical part no.) from several sellers on eBay. I have recently purchased one for the huge price of £3.86 incl. P+P and VAT! The seller is called shinyempire but they are part of a larger group called UXcell and the part was dispatched from within the UK and arrived within two days. Can't fault their sevice at all and now have a working drill once more.
Hope this post may be of help to someone else.

You can still purchase one from their spares line 0845 602 1381; I had a similar problem and they took a good switch off of a damaged return item and sent it to me.......for free (now that was excellent service). There was a guy called Pete Sharmen there who arranged it. See if you can get hold of him.
