Mike, your switch could just be dirty/corroded. I would suggest 
cleaning your switch with something like Caigs DeOxit. Then work it 20 
or 50 times. This seems to be a common problem with many of the seat 
and window switches.

Also, I'd like to make some gentle suggestions. I would ask you and 
others, to please trim your emails to the List. Having 10 old messages 
that don't pertain to the current question is unnecessary and a waste 
of electrons. :-) And especially cumbersome to digest recipients.

And when starting a new thread, it would be better if you didn't use 
some old message to "reply" to. Just compose a new message, and type in 
the List email addy and new Subject. Using an old message will place 
your message out of order for those of us who have email programs that 
sort by thread; even if you change the Subject on an old message. Hope 
this makes sense.

Just some suggestions.

Good luck with your switch problems.
