It acts upon a chingus inside the switch.   That chingus is what keeps the 
switch down, until the cam actuates it, at which point it's released.

The chingus goes bad over time, so that the switch has to be held in the up 
or down position.   That's Mike's problem, and that's what Bill Taylor 
fixes oh-so-well.

And if a switch is too far gone, I have an NOS switch available (which has 
been looked over and tested by Bill, but not taken apart and 'fixed' since 
it is new).
