I\'ve noticed this happen whenever there is significant amounts of heat during the day; I come to my car, and notice that there is a layer of oil/sweat on that switch, and no other ones.

I don\'t use the switch during my morning drives, as it is still cool enough, and
I\'ve looked at night, and the lights are still on, so I don\'t think anything is leaking there.

Anybody else have this happen, or is my car possessed?

It may not be oil or condensation. This link (http://www.chilloutzone.de/files/05062803.html) may explain its origins though.

This exact \"problem\" is happening on our 3 also......it\'s actually quite strange.

it\'s like there is water seeping throught the plastic, right around those three things... it\'s very weird... First time it happened, I cleaned it... then a few months later noticed it again... I\'m like WTF? the plastic is leaking.

ahhh

We get it much more frequently than you Ex-rolla if you only get it every month or so......I feel as though I see it at least once a week.

OMG, I thought I was the only one having that problem, I thought it was some oil, so I wiped it off, and it came back the next day... I think it has something to do with the condensation with those 3 LEDs heating up or whatever.
