Les, a regular subject. Remedies vary from putting unit in a warm airing cupboard to putting it in the freezer!!. There are reports of both methods working. Another is to remove the 'button' unit and gently clean the contacts with an appropriate cleaner.

I had a look at a stripped down shell, there arent too many places it could come through, really just the grommets for wiring looms and steering column, unless the foam seal is away on the blower unit or fusebox?
