Atleast on model which I own (~6 yrs old), there is no need to take apart the case for switch removal. Simply pry the switch cover off (gently) and switch will then slide out for cleaning & evaluation.

You can replace them but unlikely to repair them. The casing will come apart, with some difficulty.
Remove the old switch, source an identical new switch and fit it.
There are 2 ways you can attempt to fix your cases. The best way but most costly would be to have the cases welded ( heliarc ). Of coarse this would involve taking the motor completely apart. Or you can try JB-weld. I have repaired many cases with JB-weld. The key to repairing with JB weld is mixing it 60 - 40 not 50 - 50, using 60% steel and 40% hardener. It may take a couple of layers of the JB weld to repair the cases, so apply it maybe a day apart. Mixing it the way i do it does take longer to fully cure so be patient. Plus you have to have the cases clean and free of any oil or dirt. It also helps to rough up the cases with a piece of sandpaper or a dremel.
Just take it apart and unplug the switch that is keeping it on. take pictures when you pull apart the cases. sometimes some of the screws are under labels. Should be no more than five screws. Paper has an oily presence and causes these type of failures.
Could be a break in the cable, thermal switch if it has one, some have them on the motor in case of overheating. Could be a faulty power switch. Could be a number of things, if you are not confident enough to take it apart and look then you should take it to a repairer.
First, you will need to remove the rubberized grip on the front. I suggest that you insert a small flat screwdriver where the switch is and gently pry up the rubberized grip. Work around it until it is free. You will then see two screws at the bottome. Remove screws and loosen the metal plate that clips on at the top. You can then gently pry the two halves of the case apart
You can't get that apart. I repair the switches on these hoses a lot. The only way to fix it is to just get a new switch and replace it. You can get a replacement switch here:
The lens has probably got something in the retraction mechanism that is stopping it retracting. This can be something as simple as sand or grit or as a result of a drop or knock. In most cases the camera will need to be stripped apart to remove the lens assy before it can be repaired. This is best left to a professional camera repair shop.
Hi, the wiring must loose around the key switch, it might be a case of taking the tiller off and resoldering the wires onto the key switch. It not a major repair , just a case of getting the tiller panel apart and locating the wires to the switch.
