Anyone Disassembled a Blue Sea 9003 Battery Switch?

One of the posts is loose on my BS 9003 On/Off battery switch. I removed the five screws on the back plate, so now that rotates slightly, but it won't come out. No set screw on the knob. I've pried pretty hard on both the knob and the back plate, no joy.

Has anyone taken one of these apart?

Why not replace it? Even if you do get it working again, it may malfunction at an inconvenient time creating less than positive issues.

They'll repair it if you send it in--takes a while to get it done. Want to have a go at it myself. Thanks.

Could always do that, but I like to repair stuff rather than just replace--if the contacts and wiper are still good. Like to have a look for myself.
