Might be the problem. If I recall, the E15 had heavy duty electronics,
and used things like SCRs to set and hold items till power was dropped.
My initial I haven't seen a thing guess is the SCR that is in series
with that switch is blown, and as a result doesn't cascade to "on" when
the switch is triggered and released.
Might also be the diode powers the SCR gate. Replace with something from
Radio Shack; their bigger silicon diodes should be fine.
