Alright,
I'm a tinkerer looking for some advice. I have a Cardiozone Elite T treadmill with a bad membrane switch. Specifically, The power button has worn out. It have a great motor and I don't have the cash to buy a new one. The problem is that they do not manufacture this particular membrane anymore so a wholesale replacement is not an option.
Here is my idea:
I found a similar membrane here:

It has one extra button than I need (the broken membrane has 9, this has 10) but so long as i line up the ribbon that powers the circuit correctly, shouldn't is work?. A picture of the broken membrane is attached. This new membrane will probably rearrange the location of particular buttons but I will just relabel them. I'm not worried about the look of the thing, only the function. The question is, will this work? Any thoughts?
If it wont work, anyone have any pointers on repairing a single membrane button?
