Need a little help - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Could be just corrosion on the wiring inside the tank if its exposed at all to
salt water. Take it back to where you bought it, or, to Fastlane Kayaks
on Mission Bay and you will get help with a new switch. Talk to Jared or
Ron.

You can unscrew the switch from outside and remove for replacement if
necessary -- I made sure to marine goop every piece of wiring and metal
inside the tank, especially around all the connections.

The Hobie switch will work forever as long as it is protected from the salt
appropriately ...

Tight Lines!
