Hi, does anyone know where i can buy an interior light switch, i have a 2.9 ultima cosworth, the switch is on the dashboard. My problem is the rear lights and dashboard lights go off (but headlights always stay on). If i fiddle with the switch the rear lights and dashboard lights come back on for 2 mins then stop working again? Idid post a want on parts wanted and had 30 views but no one selling any. Can anyone help please, thanks

Alan. Have you removed the switch and checked the large multiplug connector behind it?. Sometimes a 'pin' will overheat and corrode causing such problems. Cleaning the contact or by passing the 'pin' will solve the problem.

Hi Alan,
the missing pins i'm guessing will now be inside the multiplug, can you remove them? can you see them?
If you PM me your address I'll post you off a light switch, has it got the front fogs setting or just the rears?
