I had a similar problem and went through 2 new dash switches before getting one that worked OK.

There is a "floating" piece of brass in there that serves as a contact, and it had a lot of green corrosion on it. Af; /html/healeys/2007-07/msg00165.html (9,211 bytes)

At that time, the solenoid was replaced. Over the past ten years, the OD would occasionally fail to engage when the dash sw; /html/healeys/2010-08/msg00552.html (8,356 bytes)
