    Usually it is the plastic components of the Combination Switch that break. They are commonly made of ABS plastic that can be mended by using cyanoacrylate or "super glue/krazy glue". Just be careful when you are doing the surgery, there are small spring and parts that could easily disappear. Relubricate with Vaseline when reassembling

    as jick says, puede kung puede. but it really depends on the partricular part. if it is a weight-bearing part or pressure part or friction part, i suggest complete replacement, because chances are it will break again...
    but you will have to remove the assembly and see if it is worth glueing.
    but if the part is next-to-impossible to source or is very expensive (memories, memories..), then glueing may be your only recourse..
    good luck.
    btw, sometimes, epoxy is the better glue material, because it offers "body" or bulk, that cyanoacrylate can not give.

    surplus, from the katay centers in banawe and evangelista..
    but these are used parts, and offer no protection from premature failure in the future.. so, choose well...
