My son-in-law, who drives a Dodge Ram, pulled out on my headlight switch to turn on the fog lights. "Cause thats the way you turn them on in my Dodge."
Now I have a headlight switch knob that doesnt want to go back on. I put it on and push and it doesnt stay. I must be missing something. Any ideas?
 






super glue?

replacing the switch is a PITA!! hahaha you have to remove the shroud under the steering wheel and your stereo bezel, remove all the nuts that hold the instrument panel bezel in place, pull it out then you have access to the back of the switch.

I prefer the method on my BII which was like unbolt bolt, bolt in new switch.
I have to replace my switch tonight on the Explorer, PITA

The knob itself is a press fit on, and if yours is falling off I suggest super glue
