Yamaha GA15II drive/clean channel switch fails

Yamaha GA15II drive/clean channel switch fails

I've had this guitar amp for 5 years and never had a problem with it. Nonetheless it has started to fail, specially when I try to use the clean channel it loses a lot of volume.

The function of the part is to alternate into the clean and overdrived sound of the guitar signal.

When I wiggle the switch it sometimes comes back to its normal volume, so I am almost 100% sure the problem is with the switch of the channel change.

I'd like to replace it but the problem is that I don't know a lot of electronics and I'm not sure what type of switch I should buy.

Hope someone can help me.

The photo of the switch is attached at the top of the post.
