Prolly gonna have to re-solder(dont remember exactly where, I said **** it when mine went) or just get a new one(and **** that, too much cheddar). You could try yanking it out and check to see what solder joint broke and fix it.



Does everything else in the car light up?

Use dieletrical grease around your solder joints, that should help w/ the humid problem.
