Sounds like an Auto-Set module [but the proper number for that is 402]. Anyway, because of the way the switches are mounted in the module [with the three little "fingers" of plastic gripping them], there's no good way to move them closer to the button [that's why your switch broke]. The only method of adjustment I have found to work [short of actually replacing the switch], is to ROTATE it slightly, either direction [some trial-and-error experimentation is in order here], and see if the button response improves [it is somethimes also possible to move the switch SIDE-to-SIDE; if so, that is worth a try also]. Ideally, the display should come on when the button is about three-quarters of the way through its' range of travel. If all this fails, the only viable alternative left is replacement of the switch. Unless you get very lucky on the first attempt, some adjustment of the new switch will be necessary to get optimum [that is, approximating-the-factory] button response.
