Yes it is. Try spraying a little WD-40 into the latch. It's a common issue that they become gummed up.

Thanks again Loosewheel, I'll give it a shot. If it doesn't work, can just the switch be replaced ?

The switch can be replaced but I am not sure you can buy it separately. The latches are common on a lot of FORD vehicles, so you might be able to go to a wrecking yard and pull one. Let me know how you make out.

Hit it with the WD40, no luck freeing it up yet
