So what is the fix? Replacing both foot switches with new ones? Or removing them and reinstalling them will fix the problem of them not working at all? What’s Step 7? If you stop after completing Step 6 you now just have a casing without foot switches. What will fix the problem of them not working qt all after removing the foot switches?
