Classic Parts of America aka CHEVY DUTY sent a defective H/L switch.
hummmmmmm
they will re send a new one but the hassle is a hassle
after i installed it...... it did NOT WORK. I then did a simple continuity check x2, with my VOM and confirmed that the switch did NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY i called CPofA. then I went back outside to unwire / rewire my old switch the NEW switch CAME COMPLETELY APART. the top plate lifted off exposing the guts and three small springs, the four fold over tabs are thin and apparently not bent over properely and this is their expensive switch @ $45.00.
first photo shows the swap, everything is going just fine. HEY it's a brand new part, i should not have to double check it @ 45bucks. i took the first to place in my photobucket site.
