Jeff,
Common complaint when the switches are down on the console where dirt and liquids can get on/in them.
You can pull the center panel and switches and disassemble and clean, but I bet you can get them working again by hitting them with a contact cleaner like Caig DeOxit while still installed, and then actuating the switches like 50 times or so.
If you disassemble the switches to clean, be careful to catch the little bb balls in there. Hint: Disassemble in a gallon-sized plastic bag!
