If you look at the wire and crimp on connector, you will also see discolorat
ion. This as you know is usually caused by heat, which is usually caused by
corrosion in the connection. I think I'd look at the wire before I blamed t
he switch. Have you checked both ends of the wire and the ground for the be
acon? What is the load draw and how does that compare to the switch rating?

This has been a long known problem in the UK with Carling switches, to
the extent that an AD was issued for annual inspection of the switches
and wiring.
http://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/easa_ad_2006_0375.pdf/AD_2006-0375_1
I think in response to the UK=99s CAA=99s concern about
this before the AD was issued Fletchair came out with
Service kit SK156 to change the cheap switches with MS35058-22 toggle
switches.

I've only seen this on the strobe and beacon switches. The wire to the strob
e through the connector next to the fuel selector also burns the connector.
I've by-passed the connector with an inline connector more than once.
