You can replace the bulb.

First pry off the cap, not shown.

Then use some heat shrink tubing along with needle nose to grab the bulb and pull.

Replace with new one.

you da man!

Not on mine, it won't work. My bulb is not burned out. There is no wire to the terminal on the switch.

Your bulb puller is great, however. I never thought of that.

Mine was dead, but the good replacement does not light up.

So how do you get the switch out of there?

Thanks Stevepaa,

That's what I was looking for. Now I can get it out and see if it is good or not.

Thanks again,
Rick

Hi guys,

The illumination of my switch does not work (I tried to change the bulb).

Anyone know how to draw the wires to make it light up?

I'm working on that this weekend.

My 91 does not light up either. I think I heard on the board several years ago that the factory disabled the switch light because it caused a glare in the side mirror and was distracting to the driver.

93 model...no light for me either.

No light on headlight switch. I thought it was a burned out bulb!

Another thing to get around to to fix.

Yes, there is no wire to the backside of the switch. I wonder if I can rig it to light only when the lights are turned on?

Really sorry to hijack,
Can someone tell me, Does this light switch turn the lights on by pulling it out or by turning it???

Crazy I know.

Turning it to the right in two steps.

If anyone desires to make that light work, you will need the special connectors in the plug receptacle. Then you can wire out from 31 to ground for constant light or for switched light, you can run 31 to the switched portion of a relay and run a line from 56K to the coil side of the relay. Then the light will only be on when you have switched your lights on.
