    Default Stuck fog light switch - any tricks, or new switch needed?

    Searched forums to no avail...

    2015 RTL, fog light switch is stuck in ON position (not a big issue); but the rocker won't come down to off position.

    Any tricks? Or new switch needed?

    If I need to replace, might as well look into adding USB port in the open space at same time.

    Thanks,

    Should be able to partially remove from dash & see I’d maybe some obstruction under rocker an wiggles to rocker side to side like maybe damaged? They are diy replaceable couple threads with part numbers & various options. FYI will be dusty under that section of dash-& also leads to the void.

    You could try giving it a good douche with electrical contact cleaner. FWIW, the part name is Beam Switch, PN 710002351, $19.49.

    Do a quick internet search for, "Carling Actuator Tool". They are about $5. Use one to remove the switch actuator (cap) and see if debris got underneath before replacing the entire switch. The switch is the Carling Contura series.
