    66 Coupe Courtesy Light Switches

    Guys, What all is involved in replacing the driver side courtesy door light switch? How is it removed (access). Are there any possible tricks which would make it work without replacing the switch??

    Thanks!

    The switch is located in the hinge "well" or hole. It comes out thru the hinge area by unscrewing it using a deepwell socket... 1/2"(?) The wire is attached/plugged into the back of the switch. Carefully pull the switch out of the hole. The wire should be long enough to allow you to get the switch out to a position where you can unplug it. your problem that it no longer works could be that the wire is unplugged and has fallen off. You need to stand on your head under the dash and find the wire color as shown in your manual (white) and fish it back thru the hole in the hinge area where you can reattach it to the switch. If you have an Assembly manual you can see the switch on the "instrument panel wiring harness" page G252 in view "A". On the wiring diagram page G268 the switch is shown at the bottom of the page "L.H. DOOR JAMB SW." (I'm referencing a 67 manual so the pages may be slightly different)
    Have fun
