There are 2 torx screws under the steering column that hold on the plastic. Pull the steering wheel away from the dash as far as possible and down after the screws are out. The 850 had 4 screws and 2 were a pain.

The electrical portion of the switch is on the left hand side of the column. It is prone to failure and a new one is probably best. Do NOT disconnect the wires! You will then have a hell of a time trying to figure out which one goes where.

As far as the relays go, in the engine compartment, the 4 T25 screws have to be loosened (not completely removed). Then the top cover pulled straight up and the relays will be revealed. They are under the fuses.

There is an additional relay area under the dash, to the left of the steering wheel and under the engine compartment fuses.

Keeping it running is better than buying new
