Defective headlight switch

July 19, 2015, 04:27:41 am

Just bought a 95 U280 and the instrument panel will only light up if the dimmer is in a "sweet spot" about full bright. They will sometimes go out even then and you must jiggle the switch.
Does anyone know the part number and where this switch can be purchased?

Maybe try some "contact cleaner" spray first. It sounds like just dirty contacts.

Should be a GM part. Replaced mine by removing it, went to a car quest auto part store, they matched it, less than 20 bucks ,
