carfreak85 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 You can probably disassemble that switch and clean up the contacts. I think you can still get them on RockAuto... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmpjose Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Have the same problem with my switch. Exact same color and set up. I have to play with button until it stays on. Will have to try the coin trick or take it apart and clean it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_freddo Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Those switches are known to be dicky. They’re easily pulled apart to be cleaned up, they are fiddly though! You need to get behind the switch as it’s held in by two screws Cheers Bennie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknownjeremiah Posted September 29, 2019 Author Share Posted September 29, 2019 So what I learned is, if the button is in the out/off position and you put a penny on the side and then push it in, it will sometimes work in a pinch. Which really helped me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknownjeremiah Posted September 29, 2019 Author Share Posted September 29, 2019 This was honestly at 5:30 AM, before the sun came up, and a penny is the first thing I grabbed in the dark. I have used it multiple times since then but only when I need it, hence when in a pinch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subarule Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 You could fold up a small piece of cardboard and wedge it in there. If you're saving your pennies. I use a cardboard wedge for various things, mostly for 9V batteries in things that don't make contact as well as they should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subi81 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Funny mine refuses to turn OFF but only sticks if I push it slowly, if I kinda tap it will work release correctly and stop the defrosting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
