Really, I feel quite lucky. This switch was ready to go out and if it did on its own, I would have had to check all sorts of things. Since it went out with the event of me using the clip, it was MUCH easier to diagnose.


And Jay - when I said I put it in wrong, not upside down, I just put it in too far and instead of clipping it on the top of the mount, the end just stuck out
