When you turn on the head lights the tail lights won't come on I replaced the switch because it smelled like it was burning. But it hasn't fixed the problem, if you play with the switch sometimes you can get both to work.

The connector does not come with the switch. It is part of the main wire harness. Check all connections inside and look for burnt ends
