So, 'Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;'
After an overnight ponder I decided that the only solution was to remove the Left Panel.
Following on from the previous numbering:-
Step 8 was to remove the 8 Cheese Head screws from the outside of the Panel and one inside. This exposed the whole of the (internal) switch mechanism.
Step 9 was to remove the 4 Cheese Head screws holding the Control Panel to the Chassis. I'd assumed (rashly?) that this ws Bakelite, but in fact it's another die casting. That exposed the Pilot Bulb and the Detent Mechanism.
Step 10 was to remove the two Cheese Head screws holding the bulb holder to the chassis.
Step 11 was to remove the Detent Spring which fully exposes the (broken) end of the shaft.
Step 12, just in passing, was to have a look at the bulbholder, which seems over complicated. The answer is simple; you can't get at it in normal circumstances so it's designed so that it can be rotated - neat.
That's enough for now. I'll press on with more pictures etc shortly.
