Hi,
the replacement switch is not so common

You could try to disassemble it and clean the switch with a contact cleaner.

Hi, you have to disassemble the unit to do it properly.
In the service manual there is an exploded view of the parts.
If you dont want to disassemble it , you can try lifting up the play button cap with a pliers .
