Take it off, remove the cover and dry it out....not hard to do at all.

Strangely, despite my tractor box playing up, the switch seems OK (LEDs behaving) - I guess the switch is mounted higher than you think.

If yours is knackered and won't dry, let me know ;)

Hi Martin
I had the same thing 3 weeks ago after the heavy rains / floods then. I chickened out of taking the switch completely off, because I struggled a bit to get the plug off, so I simply unbolted it, let it hang on the loom, unscrewed the cover and dried the internals with a hair dryer in situ. Has worked a dream since (where is that wood).

Good Luck, Pat

If it is dry today I'll jack it up and have a quick look

SO nothing to worry about
