Available Replacement Landing Gear Switch

Question

Question:

I have a 2016 Forest River Heritage Glenn 5th wheel, my landing gear switch for the rear landing gear will only raise the jacks and not extend them. I am looking for a new switch prewired for a replacement and saw you switch part number 387874, would that work of my unit. The wiring is the same as I have now and the switch looks just like the one from the factory.
