There is continuity to both outer pins 1 and 3, but the
center pin 2 is an open, which is somewhere embedded within
the plastic housing!

Yes, because the moving contact point is gunked up. Flush the whole thing
with cramolin and it will likely be fine. Spray it in, work it back and
forth, spray some more, work it back and forth.

Dammit! I'm SOL!

No, you aren't. You should just follow the advice I gave in my first message
and flush the thing out with cramolin. Or Callube or FaderLube, or, as I said,
whatever the currently fashionable Quietrole replacement is.
