Tiger whispers... take your switches apart and clean the contacts inside
with screwdriver... scrape it clean. Also, check your fuses... take em out
and check for corrosion.

And then, even if they didn't look corroded, replace them.

Nah... these switches are heavy duty... I never had to throw away one yet...
only one that was defective is the plastic privot broke... but you would
definitely know... no positive tilt.
