Hi HO455 !

Thanks for the help. update: I swapped out the switch and all is good again. This past weekend, before swapping out the switch, I could feel the metal around the switch getting quite hot, and at one point my daughter smelled "something burning". When I removed the switch, I noticed the BATT terminal area had partially melted, and the wire to it was a bit charred. I replaced the connected with a new one, installed the switch and - so far so good - it's been working like a champ. As a plus, the ACC position now works too!
