Sticky Switch!

[Ogben Schmutzel]

Hi All,

 

One of the window switches is sticking in the up position. I had something similar on another motor once and made it worse by spaying with the ole faithful.

 

Any pointers? ED40, silicone lubricant??

 

Cheers.

I was of course referring to Texaco URSA ED 40 1/55 but you all knew that really didn'y you <_<

see told you I was ignorant - I did suggest silicone as well

[seatkid]

Make sure the switch hasnt moved in the housing frame. Mine has (due to door repair - incorrect assembly I think). The edge of the rocker then catches the trim and sticks. Solution would be to strip and reassemble properly.

S'ok, it was typo really. You can find anthing with Google these days :D

good comeback though

Silicone.

 

erm no.

 

Its crap, and is likely to sieze up whatever you spray it on.

Which is why WD40 has on the can in big red letters

'A sillicone free product' :D

Its got it in BIG red letters because in some situations it causes extreme problems - e.g. in at least some plastic moulding tooling it ruins the tools - in a past life I've seen them throw out
