Can you tell me how to change this I assume its the unit on the steering column about 8" from the floor I see no screws holding it and can't figure how it would come off it looks like it has 3 wires plugged in it. This will be the 4 one replaced in the last 5 yrs. And the last one in 4 months. I don't have a problem anyone making a dollar but its been running $160 - $185.00 for this and the switch is only $26.00 any help I would be grateful

No it doesn't, I just didn't want to upload this if this wasn't what you had.
