Mine is move stalk away once and it works- move stalk away again and it stops. Annoying thing is if you hold it too much you get screenwash what you don't always want

Gone and forgotten  :grin:

But as said it's the indicator stalk. Push it or pull it.

How difficult can it be to gently double push the stalk forward?  :undecided:

mine is once to turn it on, then when its on once more to turn it off. its like an on off switch theres no secret sequence or anything :P Cant see how the stalk can be broken if it works to turn it on then it should work to turn off?
