96 RK tripmeter button not working

Is the button that switches between odometer and tripmeter replaceable? I have to push mine numerous times to get it to switch over or reset the tripmeter. I took the console off and tried to see if I could clean it but it's the switch is enclosed in a little plastic box so I was unable to do anything to it? If it's replaceable does anyone have a part number or know if I can just pick one up at the dealer?

thanks!

There are 2 trip selections and the overall odometer. There is Trip A and Trip B. Are you sure you are not just switching between the 2? and to reset you push and hold it until it resets.

RE: 96 RK tripmeter button not working

Well on my 96 I've only notice one tripmeter though I remember my 04 sporty having 2. When I mean I have to push it numberous times I'm talking like 20 plus to try and make a good connection so that it will go from odometer to tripmeter. I used to be able to get it to switch in 3 or 4 pushes but it is getting progressively worse.

thanks
