Switch broken on my Thetford toilet flush?

The small switch on my Thetford C200CWE toilet switch has disintegrated. Any ideas where i could get just the switch rather than the whole assembly. Caravan shops want £26.00+
I'm sure that the actual switch would be a lot less than that if i could just find one ??

Thanks BB Was just wondering if i could get the micro switch on its own for a couple of quid. I'm pretty good with a soldering iron and i've mended it before but its completely u.s.

Don't bother for Thetford fridges they tell you for safety reason to take it to a service centre

TIP: refers C2 only
Never try replacing the pump cable back to micro switch unit you'll have to take the whole unit out to do that. Just cut the old wire and splice to the new pump wire using heat shrink sleaves obtainable in some auto shops. Watch the wire with thin trace colour [eg: white with black thin tracer colour] no matter if the wires are different colour make sure that you joint the wires with tracer colour on the old pump wire to the wire with a tracer on the new pump,then obviously join the two plain ones together.
