That's what the problem was on my 5k. If you've still got access to the
switch, use a meter to check that the two wires are connected to what
they should be. I believe one side should be connected to +12V.

I found that the four-point connector was connected but the contacts
inside weren't properly strain-relieved, and they had moved apart.
