Disconnect the battery ground to keep from shorting anything. Remove the side console cover. (3 screws) You'll see the connector on the back of the switch, pry this off gently. There are 2 screws that hold the switch to the bottom of the console plate. Only one screw will have to be removed completely. Loosen the second screw and the switch will drop out. A small ratchet should fit. It's a tight placeto work.
