I am awaiting the delivery of a shop manual to help me with the various repairs on my '76 Edlorado convertible. I cannot figure out how to remove the plastic control **** off of the post that resides in the headlight switch on the dash so I can install a new switch. Is there a locking clip or special tool needed to accomplish this?


Thanks,

 

On some switches there a slot in **** and a pocket screw diver can depress retainer and **** will pull off switch,on ones where there is no slot its a little harder.You will need to remove trim so you can get your hand on switch, you will feel a button on switch it around a 1/4" in dia. pull **** out and button will not want to depress.Push **** in hold button down and **** should come out/off,be advised in either case if battery is connected the lights will be on,but on the 1st type you will be able to turn them off.Hope it helps
