The light is out on our 3-way momentary water pump switch shown here. It works, but the light doesn't show you the water pump status anymore. The one in the bathroom works fine. Does anyone know where I can find a replacement switch?

You may not be able to get the exact switch but just about any well stocked RV store will have what you are looking for.

Finding an exact replacement may be a pain.
I have a stock of 1/4 inch diamater LED lamp assemblies I got at a local electroincs supply, I buy 'em by the dozen. These are a long tube (perhaps 1.5") with a Lense and ring at one end, and wires (red/black) at the other. You drill a quarter inch hole next to the switch (Above, below or beside) insert, slip a "Speed nut" (Spring thing) over the wieres and shaft to mount it.. Then you hook the wires to the switch.
NOW.. the issue....... Depending on how that switch is wired, you may need two of them.
Second issue: How to hook up.. Which wire goes where.. I use meters to figure that one out.

You didn't give dimentions so I'm guessing Cherry will have one that works.
Cherry YR Series
Call them and see what they can do.

We had 2 that didn't work....
Take the switch apart and replace the incandescent bulb with an LED (and the required in-line resistor). The LED pack points out which resistor and both should be available at Radio Shack (found mine at Fry's). It took 1/2 hour each and required soldering....

I just did an on-line search and found many switches that look like they would work (sorry I did not insert) one place Berrylandcamper.com (I think) just google and you will find it.
They had multiple switch plates with square opening then many rocker switches lighted variety that could be inserted basically duplicating what you have. Sizing is uncertain because I do not have the dimensions but a bit larger would cover any telltale marks left by your old switch.
This would be a path I would take--if I could not find an exact match--good luck.
