Don't know if you have purchased a new switch as yet. If not try spraying the old with a good quality libricate, like white lithium grease. Mine has gummed up twice on my Ultra Limited and giving it a good lube seems to get it working again. Normally spray and pull and release the clutch about 20 times to free it up.
