Replacing Multifunction Switch
I have a '99 F-150 4.2L Supercab. Does anybody know the steps needed to replace the multifunction switch? I posted a message earlier regarding a problem with the switch and saw some earlier posts that said there are other posts with directions but could not find them. Thanks.
