i dont know if i found the dimmer switch or not on my 91 rs camaro. what i think is the dimmer is about a third way down the steering coulmn but i cant seem to get to it if it is. if u could upload pics of explain how to get to it cause there are other things in the way. also how do u take the headlight **** off? i tried just pullin it but it didnt wrk/

thnx
alex

 

the dimmer switch has a rod goin through it and its white. It has two bolts on it at both ends of a chrome lookin thing. But the way to get the two bolts out are to get a regular wrench, well thats the way i did it. I know its not fun lol but u will get it.

 

ok the thing i am lookin at is the right thing thnx for tht. ok so to get it off and get to the bolts do i take off the two metal brackets tht are near it under the middle of the steering column i cant see any bolts the r holding the dimmer switch up

 

the dimmer switch is connected to a 3 inch metal thing and the bolts are holding the bracket on. I think they are on the very top of the bracket. Ill try to post a pic of them later

 

I have a question, I already located the bolts to take the switch and swap in the new one. My problem is at the turn signal lever.
I opened the cover at the steering wheel where the turn signal lever is and a black plastic piece fell. I think this is the piece that is between the turn signal lever and rod that goes down to the actual switch. How do i go about putting it all together I cant seem to figure out how it goes.
Also I failed my state inspection because of this problem

can anyone help please!?

 

The light switch **** - to remove - on the bottom side of the switch (inside the dash) there is a very small button - it has to be pushed up - can take the underside cover off at the floorboards and poke a pencil up there - use the eraser end as the rubber won't slip off the button.

The dimmer switch is almost at the very bottom of the steering column - it's just above the brake pedal - I think you are looking at the wrong switch. You'll know it by pulling on the dimmer switch (turn signal lever) while looking, and you'll see the rod actuating the switch.

Most times the switch doesn't need replaced, just adjusted - I'd try just adjusting it first. BTW those screw heads are 7mm.

Where in NC are you alex?
