To open the switch remove the round dial then the 4 lugs two on each side with a small flat blade screwdriver gently lift the plastic around them easing the case apart, there will be a tiny spring make sure you dont lose this.

Replacing the bulb is a little complexImage0011.jpgThe small solder lumps need unsoldering to separate the green circuit board from the white board the bulb will then drop out after unscrewing.

I don’t know how to solder with this detail. But it looks like you could cut out that corner of the white plastic with a Dremel, then remove the bulb and holder out the back. Replace, and the green board will hold it in.
