Hi Todd,

The switch plugs in to a socket on the harness, but when that particular one fails, you may find the socket melted or even charred. In 86, I believe, the headlight circuit and switch was changed to use a relay, but those before that handle all the current in the switch.

I've had to replace both the switch and the harness end that plugs into the switch. I think I got more working room by removing the speedometer cluster.
