Mine is non-redundant, too, since I only replaced one switch. If
they're failing this fast, having redundant pairs may be pointless.
If this really is the problem, I suppose I could make up a little
transistor switch to carry the load and have the MC switch only carry
the transistor base current. That might be simple, and it would
certainly be an easy fix if this is the only problem.
