    Spray on contact cleaner, put back together, use the switch a number of times

    Thank you for your willingness to make and publish the video, it was useful for me to understand what I could do. Unfortunately, however, regarding how to do this operation, this video is only partially useful and potentially dangerous. First of all, I didn't like how you shot the opening of the switch: if, in that part, you simply had framed the switch instead of just your hands, you would have been more useful, and it woulded cost you very little. It's a delicate operation, in my case the switch opened halfway before extracting itself from its joint. All the interior pieces bounced far off the floor and it was quite a mess. Futhermore, I would advise you to speak more clearly, not muttering. In any case, let it be clear, you are an enrichment for the community and I thank you, also because otherwise I would not have attempted the disassembly. I think you are the only one in the web that did a video about that.

    If the switches are working perfectly then check the wiring harnas right by the plug where it goes into the car, some wires like to break off there, i will be doing a video on that soon as mine has broken off there, but if you clean out thosw switches 90% of the time it would be the only problem, they all look exactly the same on the inside so if you follow what i did on that one you will be able to get them all working again, just take out the one that is causing the problem

    I have found that quite a few fiats do that, those pins get dirty and then the switch does not work any more, very easy to fix

    And what about when the led light in the switch is also not working? Could this be the solution?
