The switch itself is a MIL-std switch manufacured by Honeywell and several aircraft manufacturers use it. Even on some helicopters. Highly improbable that it's the switch.My son did some searching and said he couldn't find the schematics on the 787 but on the 737 the switches operate independent relay contacts and acts as a bistable that will hold even if the entire power fails.  The two engines have separate paths.Unless an engineer who knows about the circuitry involved and show a common factor that could cause this , the rest is pure baloney.   <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite24" alt=":unsure:" title="Unsure    :unsure:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":unsure:" /></blockquote>
