Headlight Switch Adventures

[Foop]

After finaly geting a replacement IPC instaled I noticed that the dimmer did not work properly. No problem,just pop out the switch assembly and check it out.

Thinking the individual switches would be compartmentalized? I poped the back off and whitnesed the jack in the box effect.Now after searching the forum I see that Jim Finn is the only man that can put the jack back in.

Help me Rhonda er a Jim please.........

Thanx Foop

PS thanx for the great deal and fast shiping on that fog light Jim

Second Attempt

I worked on it again last night and got it all back together. Now when I hit the switch

the lights pop up and come on,but when I release it they go back down.When I hit the

fog light switch they come on and when I release it they go off. What did I miss?

Are you sure that the movement of the switch is not impared , like one side sticking?

Is that a 90 ? Sounds like it is not latching. A good 90 switch has almost no slack when off but noticable give when on.
