My MK 3'S left hand switch assembly has pack up working, been looking around and they appear to be NLA. I have found Triumph T140 switches that look the same available as replicas but they have a separate clutch lever assembly. does anybody know if the internals are the same and could be just swapped over to my original switch ? I'm looking at this switch

Triumph Left Hand Switch Assembly - T140, TR7 and T160 Models Circa 1976-78​

OEM: 19-1965, 60-4586, 30447, 30707, 181SA

The above switch is available from
Feked Classic Bike Parts
The Old Racing Stables, Nine Yews, Cranborne, Dorset BH21 5PW, UK

Sounds very like LAB's suggestion will work. When you dismantle it to repair do it inside a plastic bag. There are many small parts including springs so you do not want to lose them if they go flying.
 
It's the indicator part that no longer works, well sometimes it does other times it doesn't

Then I suggest you remove the plate (3 Posidriv screws) one of which is missing in the picture as the plate is broken...

...remove the nylon sliding contact holder (with a brass contact and a spring behind) and the contact board...

...clean them up, reassemble and see if that cures the problem.
