why woulden't an electrition like your self do it properly and REPLACE the switch.

Teevee, can you do a little electonic work? it might be soldered in so the best bet is after the lights go off tonight take that switch out. (does your dual PFO have two wall plugs or one?) if two then don't plug the one you took the switch out of back in, if one you will have to physicaly disconect the power inside for that ballast (should be wire nuts, just undo them and take the wire out for that ballast then do them back up for the other ballast. do one at a time so you don't mix them up and lable so you can hook it back up the same laiter. the switch might be soldered in but most likely it will be done with wire nuts also.

take your switch into a electronic store in red dear and get a new switch.
