40-216 restoration questions

40-216 band switch doesn’t appear to have any feedback when rotating. Well there is some but it is really small. Maybe just getting enough feedback from the waffer contacts.
I can see the end piece that is all metal and usually rotates up and over those bumps for feedback and that piece that moves is riding above the bumps.
I don’t see how this could even be moved down into a better position. The amount of space and what is needed to make contact doesn’t seem like it would be enough.
Plus I don’t see how if it used to ride fine that it would have moved that much further above the bumps.
Thoughts?
Design or QA flaw?
Can I fix?
