Headlight switch/helppp.
 

Hi guys, am in a dilemma .went on the road today and night caught me.reached for the headlight switch and guess what it was very stiff to operate.i almost froze as i had far to go and driving without lights is almost impossible.How do i remove the light knob to get to the switch and can it be lubricated?:(

The knob can me removed by siding a narrow screwdriver into the slot at the bottom. The switch can be removed by removing the knee bolster, or going in fom the top by removing the vent. Do a search on the bolster and the vent it has been described before. It would help if you show the car model and year

Hi peter, found the info will get to it asap,thanks:)

Found this old post and I have similar problem. 1981 300SD. The headlight switch was hard to turn of yesterday and now it will not turn at all. Is this fixable or do I need a new headlight switch?

Suppose I must remove the knee plate?
