I'm trying to replace my headlamp switch on my Disco I. I removed the steering wheel shround and unscrewed the two small screws that seem to hold the switch in. It's definitely lose in it's housing but I can't get it to come out now. Does it just pull out sideways after removing the screws or is there more that needs to be done. It almost feels like it is held in with tabs from being popped in, however I'm not for sure and I was afraid of forcing it and breaking it.

Anyone know how to remove this?

Thanks everyone

 

I forgot to add that I looked at Rave but couldn't seem to find anything about the removal of the switch. The only place I saw anything was under the steering section but it was talking about removing the steering column in which the entire assembly, both switches included, were removed at once. There has to be a way to remove just the switch, I'm just not sure if it requires breaking down the steering wheel.

 

Sorry to clutter the forum up but I finally got my search function to stop acting up. It appears you just need to put some mustard behind your pull to get it out.

Morning junkyard treasure hunt...here I come. You never know what you come back with.

 

You need to like put your foot on the streering colum and just yank the hell out of it.
Whenever I go to the junk yard I come back with enough stuff to build a whole other car.
One time at the dump I went with half a trailer load and came back with a full one.

 

I have the same problem. How did you get the switch out? Thanks

 

DONT YANK ON THE STALK!!!!
