Bosch WFK 2401 Washing Machine On/Off Switch Replacement

Can anyone help me find out where I can purchase a replacement on/off switch for our Bosch WFK 2401 washing machine and tell me how I find out how to install it. The problem is that the switch will not stay on (it trips off immediately or after a short while). My wife has taken to jamming it in to keep it on (using a hair grip!), but I think this is risky in case the switch is tripping for a real reason. Mind you, the machine runs perfectly when the switch is held in.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Can I stack my bosch wfk 2401 on top of my bosch wtl 5400

I wouldn't. Not without a proper shelf for the washer.

Washing machines are heavy because there's a huge lump of concrete placed over the drum to dampen down any vibrations. A tumble dryer is hollow, has little structural strength.

Put the machine on top of the dryer, you're going to get a crushed dryer if not a crushed foot, leg or child. Please be very careful.
