Default replacement switch for a Pro Standard pedestal fan?

I have a Pro Standard pedestal fan that was purchased from Lowes
probably 8-10 years ago. *It has good velocity and fairly sturdy
construction (metal blades, etc)- except for the 3 speed switch which
just broke.

I have tried searching for a replacement switch and haven't been able
to find much at all. *I paid pretty good money for it and would like
to be able to fix it rather than pitch it.

Can someone help me please?

Thanks!


My best idea would be to disassemble the fan, remove the switch, then
find one that matches both the specifications and size through
McMaster-Carr, Digi-Key, etc.

Useta be that there would be good electronics supply stores around
where you could just walk in and they'd have what you needed, but
there's only one around here that I know of (metro DC area) haven't
really seen a good and helpful one since I moved out of Michigan some
10 years ago.
