Default c5 cruise set button 2001 - 2004

Can anyone help me get a set button @ the end of the light & directional stalk. Mine keeps flying out & won't latch back in the end when I re-install it. The little holding legs must be warped. Any old broken stalk with the setbutton in place will work. Does anyone know how to purchase a new one ? That would be the best thing. Thanks in advance

Default c5 cruise set button

I tried both of them & they do not list the set button as a separate part. I think a broken directional or the lights don't function, someone replaced. Might be my best bet. Anyone got one ?

I'm just guessing (last time I answered a tech question I had to don my flame suit) but most likely you will need to replace the stalk and the wiring harness that is attached to it.

I am sure that someone with more tech knowledge than myself will chime in.

Thanks for the research. I will check that out. I would just rather spend $150 on performance parts, than a $2 button. I don't relish having to yank the column all apart, just for this nickel dime part. Thanks again.

The "column" doesn't have to "come apart", nor does the steering wheel have to come off.
