Starter button not working

[thebook92]

When I push the starter button on my '85 Spree, it feels like it's already pushed all the way in and there's no "springiness" to it. Also, I have to wiggle it around in order for the starter relay to engage. Is there any way to take that assembly apart and fix said problem?

My theory is: someone put it together, it has to come apart.

I have a switch in my parts box I can sell you if you can't fix it.

The service manual (no RTFM for me, good sir! ) doesn't show anything about disassembling that part, and I'd really rather not go tearing into something and end up with no idea how to put it back together. Was I missing something in there, or is there a link to a document or something that shows how it comes apart?

I'll go look at the switch and see if the return spring is accessible without much tear-down.

Alright, thanks in advance.

don't think parts are available individually but usually just need a good cleaning.

Two screws will split the whole housing open. Inside there is a switch held on by one screw. There is a spring in there. Looks like you can access it if it fell out.

Oops. Uploaded the pic twice.
