I have a new optical switch on order and will see what this does for
me.

If you remove the opto board check the solder connections for cracks,
mainly where the pins for the cable attaches. And now that I think of
it, Rowe CCC boards (and all their circuit boards) are notorious for
cracked solder connections on all the plug pins.

All their boards are good for this. Re soldering is a must.
Replacing the pins in the 2.54mm plug housings they use is also
advisable.


Even though it is too late now you have bought the opto, for the info
of others on here,
the actual opto switch itself is available from Farnell for about
$12. (we bought in 50+ quantities at the time).

The part from our ROWE distributor including the bracket and harness
was over $100.


I've used generic surplus ones for less than $1 that worked just fine.
It's been years so no I don't have the info for them anymore.

Actually one time in a bind, I cut and pulled the IR LED from a
different style U shaped sensor and used it to replace the led in the
original one.
