If cleaning fails to correct the problem, an email to Mark Oppat may be in order...

The AFC switches on the 1937-38 Philcos are known to be problematic. These are often stuck in either the "off" or "on" position, or at least the part of the switch controlling the lights gets stuck in either the "off" or "on" position and will not operate.
