I broke the gear up warning trip switch on my glider. It was positioned
near the landing gear mechanism and had a wire that actuated a warning

Des anyone know a source for a replacement?

Thanks,

You didn’t say what type of switch was been use, I presume it is a micro
switch, so contact has to be made to actuate it, why not use a reed switch,
actuate by a small magnet in close proximity, no need to physically make
contact.
