[QUOTE="jarance, post: 196289, member: 21"] 1. check the battery terminal and make sure that it is tight. 2. There is a fuse link also. check the tightness there as well. It can't be the switches coz without touching them, the light comes "On" suddenly. From your description, it is most likely the terminal at the battery. If it is the alternator problem, the battery most probably will be weak but it will still be able to light up the car and instrument. However, a weak battery will not be able to crank the starter. Battery- Time to change if you have used it for 5 years. [/QUOTE]
