The Ford Barn

New poster and new to Model A’s. My light switch was and still is very hard to turn and only occasionally connects so the lights come on and then only on low beam. I have replaced every part piece by piecE (horn rod, bail, switch housing, loom, spider spring and washer) to no avail. The only thing I ever saw that looked suspicious was a PO had filed Both sides of the spider to a wedge shape. I have inserting the switch on the spider with the contacts in as many different orientations as I find possible but nothing! Does anyone have any suggestions?
