Default Trim Tab problems

I have a set of Lenco Trim tabs on my blazer, that were fine until this evenings trip. They will go off at random times and the push buttons are real finicky to get them to turn off. I'm thinking my push buttons/switch is bad?
Figured I'd ask and see if anybody has had this problem, would rather ask first then bring into shop. Will be running trips here soon.

Mine did the same thing. Replaced the switch and was good to go. No reason to bring it to the shop. Took me about 15 minutes to do it.

Bring it by the house and I can check the switch and connections for you.

Sounds like Paul is gonna hook you up this time; but just FYI those console switches defiantly have a life span and they will be shortened depending on how much you fish and if you leave boat covered or uncovered.

Some of the best money I spent on my bayboat was having Lake Area Marine replace the fuse panel, console switches, and basicly go though all electronics. I bought all the parts to do it myself but I decided to let them have it. They used the parts I bought and only charged my labor. They were very reasonable. IMO that's money very well spent for some tedious labor.

When you start to have several electrical issues keep that in mind.
