I didn't mean to start an argument, I just wanted to know what I was dealing
with. Now that I know it is a relay, I can tell you how to replace it with
a genuine Radio Shack part if you wish. Give me the manufacturer and part
number again and I'll go back into the dusty part of the library and see if
I can find an old data sheet. I can then tell you how to cobble a
replacement part in.

I think "relay" is the correct terminology for this component. I
thought they were referred to as "relay switches", but all sites I have
seen do refer to them as "relays".
