I have a 2001 Fantom Cyclone XT that has a bad motor. I've heard that it was a Panasonic motor that may still be available. Is this true? I see ones that are similar, but I don't know if they would work. Also, I have a 1995 Fantom that needs a new switch. The Hoover Conquest switch looks to be the same. Any thoughts?

I bought it for $25 at my vac shop. It was a trade in. The switch was sticky, and then it stopped working completely. The lights don't work but the motor runs fine. It's at the shop right now. He's waiting for a donor Thunder, but i'd rather just get a new switch. I'll have to ask him since he may have a Conquest switch lying around. If worst comes to worst, I'll just have it re-wired to come on when it's plugged in.
