i fixed mine it was caused by sum fuckwit wiring the stereo to a fuse (headlight fuse) and was still reading as if there was power at both sides. got rid of the stereo wiring and new fuse and its good now. id be checking fuses for yours

The switch has little contact springs, like leaf springs, they're prone to get weak and you'll no lights or lights when you don't want them.
If you remove the plastic under the steering wheel you can see where the light switch connects to the steering coloumn, thats where the terminals are. Remove the little black plastic cover and rearch the contacts. But beware, this is only a temporary fix and will get worse by time. You're better off changing the whole switch.
