Lumbar Support Not Working

This is the button next to my seat by the heated seat button.

Whether I am in ignition switch 2 or car started it does not work.

I have looked up the fuse in the manual which states F85 in cabin. However the 25 amp fuse includes the seat adjustment. The seat adjustment works fine.

Has anyone had a similar problem. Is it worth taking the switch out and and checking connectors? I think that might be my next option???

For anyone in the future that may have this problem I managed to fix it.

I prised out the lumber switch from both sides carfully and put the ignition on.

The switch started working. One of the connectors in the switch was faulty. Surprise surprise.

I uncliped the switch and where there was movement on one of the terminals I super glued it with a tiny drop on the plastic where it enters the switch.

Switch works fine. Not the best solution. New switch would be best but I never change lumber so for me it works and saves a some money on a new switch.

Thanks Vergis, my lumbar support has been out for some time. What did you use to pull the switch out?

A very small flat head screwdriver. Edged one side then the other bit by bit.
