My panel light switch gave up the ghost (happy Halloween ;-) ) a while back. It was not repairable. I thought, "Why does one need a separate panel light switch?". The only time you need the panel lig

Kees, I have had success with the WD40 treatment as well, not always, but I recall my O/D switch was intermittent when I got the car, didn't like like it was meant to be taken apart, but a thorough s
