Re: Hazard light wiring, need some help

With the parts houses loan a tool programs it doesn't cost anything in the end to use one of their proper tools to hold the lock plate down and take the snap rig off. That makes it a simple process and the switch is right below the lock plate.

If you take a length of wire feed wire and tie the plug flat to the end of the harness and then tie it so you can have enough wire left that when you pull the switch and wire out of the column you can tie the wire to the plug on the new switch and gently pull it back down the column it saves a huge amount of frustration and hassle.
