thanks,yes that's pretty much what i found online. probably going to have to buy a physical repair manual,cannot find anything online that i can view to remove multi function switch,had covers off. trying to do it one handed cannot use left hand from strokes. trying to see how to remove multi function switch

got covers and tilt lever removed,am i wrong or does steering wheel need removed to access multi switch screws? thanks in advance

No steering wheel can stay. There is a torx screw and a torx style nut that hold the switch in place.

i'm going to have to look again i see where the manual points to them but i must have overlooked them

silly ? what's the trick to pull white plug with red tab on m/f switch?

pull the red tab first

well got switch swapped,not the problem.noticed a wire blk/r is broken looks like from the switch trying to locate in serv. manual wiring diagram

update ok it was the broken wire blk/r out of ignition switch vehicle has a remote start i think is aftermarket,quite a few non factory connections in the area i think from the tilt wheel over time broke the connection,jerry rigged a jumper connection to verify. no more air bag/abs/brake light. windows/turn signals/hvac all works. i can't get in to splice it together one handed.got to get somebody to splice it for me
