The map light switch in the overhead console came apart. I removed the console to get better access, but now I'm not sure how to put the switch back together. It has about 4-5 parts inside the plastic wire /button holder including a spring. Can anyone help with a drawing or instructions?

Unfortunately, we don't have a process on how to reassemble the switch as I don't think it is meant to come apart so it may not go back together properly even if we had the process.

However, based on this I would suggest testing the switch before you put everything back together because I suspect you will have to replace it.

Please see the info below and let me know what questions you have on this. If you can get a picture of what you are dealing with then we may be able to put it together the best we can figure.

Thanks
