Then you have a difrent set of switches than me. Mine only gives out a
shorten curcuit when pressed and a open connection when not pressed. There
are no resistance between the two stages. This are switches from the 1.5
set, maybe the new one from the 2.0 set is diffrent? Have to take apart my
robot and test them too....

The way I'm testing them is by connecting a multimeter to the switch
connector and slowly press the button in. It just goes from nothing to 0 ohm
in no seconds.

Are you sure your multimeter is up to the task? I have measured numerous touch
sensors (from 1.5, 2.0 and cybermaster), all of them have a high value when not
pressed (open for RIS 1.5 and 2.0, 10 to 15KOhm for Cybermaster that have a
parallelded resistor). When pressed all of them decrease to about 500 Ohm, the
variation occurs on a 0.05 mm course. See the variation curve here:
