Broken toggle switch Ati Powermodule

I have a broken toggle switch on my Powermodule that needs to be replaced so I can automatically dim with my apex.....it's broken switched to manual. I'm sure RadioShack has what I need but when looking at their switches they all had different amperages. Does anyone know the correct one I need and how to replace it? I opened up the control box and there are four wires going into the back of the switch.

The best way to know exactly is to contact customer service and give them the model

Definitely get the correct information. Toggle switches come in many types such as double pole double throw and with vastly varying current handling characteristics. Once you determine what is needed, just match the stats and you should be good to go. If radio shack doesn't carry it you have plenty of online solutions to find and match the correct switch

For those with the dimmable powermodule, ReefGeek sells two of the toggle switches for $8.95 shipped. Ordered and they will be arriving this week.
