Posting this as a heads up to anyone with a red Blue Sea Systems m-Series M6007 1-2-Both battery selector switch. If you have one, inspect it right away!!

A few months ago I noticed that the selector dial turned without the usual "click" into place. There was no visual indication that there was anything wrong. I heard that there have been failures so called Blue Sea. They sent me a warranty replacement at no cost that arrived last week. When I removed the switch I installed in 2016, it literally fell apart. The plastic had failed that the screws thread into to hold the front and back of the switch together. Apparently the switch contact was only being made because the 1AWG cables were stiff enough to keep the back of the switch in place.
