Apollo 12 suffered a major malfunction when it was struck by 2 lightning strikes not long after lift-off. All control was lost until a clever engineer on the ground suggested they try changing the SCE switch from normal to Aux. This restarted the computers, and the mission carried on.

This is my recreation of the switch. Reorient the parts if needed to print comfortably.
