I notice my light switch was loosing its "click". It would just mush through the positions. Then one evening, the instrument lights did not come on. Suspecting the light switch, I followed the advice on this forum and cleaned the switch thoroughly with contact cleaner. I worked the switch through its positions but will no feeling of the detents. Once reconnected only the headlights would come on with the ignition and would not shut off. I took the switch out again and shuck it. I sounded like sand inside the switch so I took it apart to see what was going on. The internal plastic was completely shredded. See the picture.
