Default Fuel door release switch.............

Has anyone else had trouble with the fuel door release switch in the center console not working properly?

Sometimes, I have to continually press the button over and over before it finally pops open the fuel door. It's possible in my numerous removals of the center console when I did the sound insulation MOD that I have not fully seated that lil plug. It's a PIA to get back on. the wire is just barely long enough.

It is a possibility. I had my console out to replace the head unit and bezel. Next day when I went to get gas, it was dead. Pulled it back out and it was unpluged. It would be worth checking to see if it is fully connected.
