94 100 SQ Headlight Switch High Beam Problem

[Kneale Brownson]

I've had the steering wheel off one of our V8s to change that switch.  I
left the airbag connected and just laid it on top of the dash while I was
taking off the rest of the steering wheel.  You need a T030 Torx bit with a
short drive handle or, even better, a 1/4" drive ratchet, to remove the two
screws holding it from the back of the steering wheel.  You need a fairly
large socket (like 24mm or more) to take off the nut holding the wheel to
the shaft.   I used some whiteout to mark generally a reference point for
the wheel on its splines so I could get it back on fairly straight.
