I see your in Berwick, your not too far from Lewisburg, there is a vacuum store there that specializes in vintage vacuums, he actually has a small museum in the store displaying vintage vacuums. The switch that is in there is it a plastic switch with a white toggle? The name of my friends store is Chathams Vacuum, he is on 113 Market Street, Lewisburg. Unfortunately now he is closed because of COVID19.

Vacman, Thanks for info. Yes it is the one with the with the white toggle. Based on pictures it maybe the same switch used on the Hoover Constellation.
