I just purchased a new headlight switch. How do I get the rod holding the knob to stay inside the switch? Thanks!

Push it in. It should lock itself.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

Thanks...just didn't go in so easy.
I am also looking for a stock wiring diagram for the original headlight swith. I have totally ripped out all of the original birdnest wiring and am looking to see which post terminal goes where. Does anyone have a picture diagram? I saw one on here earlier this year but did nit bookmark it.

Thanks again!

Purchased a new switch from LMC. It did not come with any instructions. I need help identifying the terminal posts. Any help would be appreciated. See link below to view what type of switch I purchased. Thanks!

The factory assembly manual and the electrical wiring diagram will show the terminal identification. Do you have the factory plug? If so, it is a plug-n-play situation.

Bats,
If you are looking for the switch diagram see attached link.
There is a figure 1 and figure 8 on the photo.

Of course if you are looking for the whole wiring diagram go by what 4-5-6 says.
