For any period of time ?
I have pressed this one and the others fifteen thousand times in frustration and have on occasions got it to reset but never knowing how I've arrived there. 
The switch unit is fairly new from Ford and I wouldn't have thought dirty yet, but hey you never know. 
Thanks
Mike

Nearly got to the stage of hitting it with a hammer never mind not pressing it too hard.

If it's a new switch , have a check that it's been pluged in right, i mean make sure that the socket is home.....
If it's happened on others you might have a dirty connector. Give it a spray with carb cleaner or electrical cleaner....................
