Just went down to the garage to run the car for a bit as it hasn't been used in a while. Everything was completely dead. A quick poke around showed 12v on the battery. Some further investigation showed that I could get power by pushing the master switch key in and wiggling it about a bit. Up until now, I've never had a problem, including the last time I started it up - about 4 weeks ago. However now, if I just casually insert the master switch and twist (like I always did) it doesn't work. I need a concerted effort to push the master key in so I can feel the contact/spring compress before twisting. Once powered up, I can let go of the key and it seems to stay powered - although I haven't tried driving like this. Is this common? Is it likely to be some fault internally with the switch or a bad connection/earth on the back? Car is 8 years old – I presume the switch is also. Switch is mounted in the usual location of the driver’s side scuttle. I'm tempted to spray some ACF50 into the switch to see if that improves things, but if the switch is on the way out, I'd prefer to just replace it as I don't want it cutting out while I'm driving.
