Simple, remove the console lid, then the inner tray, and you'll see the back of the switches. they have an area on each end to push in, and the switches will pop out. Take the switches apart, clean the metal contact inside, and your good. Careful taking the switches apart, the metal contacts are spring loaded, with small parts. The switches are interchangable, so no worries about getting them mixed up. Failing this, replacements are usally on ebay, or David at everydayxj.com will have them. Theres plenty of articles here, and Jaglovers about fixing your leaking tank.
