[C320-list] Berth lights

[ART HARDEN]

One thing about toggle switches is they tend to gum up overtime. If you take some WD-40 and spray it into the switch and then flip it back-and-forth several times that generally works for me. It’s worth a try before paying for a new switch.

If I cycle the switch on and off a lot of times, the lights start working again.  I’m sure that a new switch would solve the issue too, but that is my annual exercise.
