Default Stuck traction control switch.

My traction control switch seems to be jammed. If I try to press it, it doesn't move. Anyone else have this problem? Is there a fix other than switch replacement.

You may be able to get the button unstuck using a razor knife between the assembly and button, but a new switch is fairly innexpensive so that's an option if you can't get it working.

The clips on the side of the button chassis (the part that clips into the console bezel) might be overmolded too far straight out of the box. I filed down the top face of the two clips on the left and right of the car figure of the button.
