Vandal Switch not working

Hey guys,

I received my Osmi case, and the 19mm Phobya vandal switch is not working...or i can not get it to work. I am sure it is wired correctly, because it is illuminated, but nothing happens when I press the button in. I am only using the positive/negative contacts from the switch to the P/N contacts on the mobo.


When I use the switch from my old case, the computer turns on not a problem.

If i cross the positive and negative wires from the switch the computer turns on as well, just not when I press the button in.

Any suggestions?

Computer is being powered via the HDPLEX.
 
Led being illuminated doesn't mean the switch is properly wired - the switch wires are most likely not welded properly or there's a defect in the wire itself(very unlikely though). It's not a rocket science, just check switch pins and wires with multimeter to make sure which one isn't working.
