That would be my assumption as well. Going by the video I posted earlier of the A8 mechanism, and from personal experience of work torches that have surface mount switches in them (three in three years all under warranty, and always the switch stops working - and they weren't used that much), these surface mount switches just don't seem up to the job, and on the door they are susceptible to weather conditions. Since they don't have any sort of latch mechanism, I don't think anything would show up on a scan, and I doubt there is anything in the VCDS measuring blocks where you could test the operation of the switch.
