Hmmm, does it click and move in and out when you press it? Did you spill some coffee on the switches? If the switch isn't moving easily, then it is probably sticky. Try some TV tuner cleaner judiciously sprayed in the area.

Hi thanx for quick reply
It clicks and seems to operate fine if i hold it in the light stays off for about 90secs then comes back on

Can this stop the air con from working alltogether as it seems to have stopped DOH!!! should have mentioned this earlier
when the engine warms up no matter what you set the displays at you get warm/hot air.....

Yes, the econ setting turns the AC off. Get a Vagcom and see if there are any issues with the HVAC, or whether it is a switch problem
