Thousands of microswitch configurations are available from numerous manufacturers. I recommend that you define what you need: Is the switch normally open or closed? What are the dimensions of the failed switch, and the size & location of its mounting holes? What is the length & shape of the actuating lever?
When you have these characteristics defined, start looking at what's available and purchase one or (hopefully) more candidates; discover what works well, and do us all a favor by reporting your results. The few words I have used here don't describe the hours you'll spend finding a suitable switch, and I hope you don't get discouraged and give up.

Good Luck!
