Default Your switch is probably coming apart. Pull it out, and push the housing back together.
Did that to mine about a year ago and it's been fine since.

Default Ours used to have that problem for over a year until we took her to the track in May. Other things
got shook back to normal too like our roadster top switch and some squeeks here and there

I've always called track events the German tune up, but that's really due to the entire combustion path getting flushed off deposits. Didn't think it would work with switches and sensors

But as others may have mentioned, you might have to open it and bend things around.

The TT fog lights are a joke. They should have placed them in the lower grills

Default He's right, this is most likely the problem, run a forum search for more detailed
instructions on how to remove the switch, so that you can remove the switch.
