If I hadn't been messing with the lights I'd think switch right away, but since I have, there's always the chance that it's just not connecting properly (though I've tried pulling and replacing it a couple of times just so see if that would clear the problem -- it didn't). Has anyone else had the switch fail? Know how to test it before I purchase a replacement?
Common failure. You can use the VW/Audi part as well, and it is cheaper. The Audi/VW part number is 4A0-905-849-B.
