My switch totally went out last night and I ended up having to drive home with my hazard lights flashing in order to see. I pulled it out and it sounds like a dried gourd when I shake it. It is definitely toast.

I ordered a new one from the dealer for $80 but it won't get here until Monday. In the mean time, does anyone have any idea which leads to jump on the female side of the canon plug in order to get some lights?

(AND , it looks like you're gonna have to jumper TWO different sets of Pins.)
(One set for the Head Lamps and a separate set for Tail Lamps)
[I'd sure be studying on this schematic ,BEFORE I jumped any terminals!]

Thanks. I think I will wait until the switch comes in. I can see myself blowing some fuses if I tried this.
