If you pop out the starter button you should be able to see the slot in the headlight switch where you insert a small screwdriver to release the shaft.

You know FTE is about asking questions, some may need to find another way of helping people or choose not to get involved in the thread. FTE is ABOUT asking and learning.

We encourage all posters to get and be familer with both the parts/shop manuals.
The more an individual learns by themselves, the better they can expain their particular problem.
I am more interested in sharing my 50 yrs of expierence by explaining the "easier way" then telling someone what bulb to change when the light goes out.

Yes i turned the **** all the way to the left (counter clockwise) then pushed the button in and can only get the stem to come out about 3/16" then it feels like its stuck on something.
The truck sat outside with no windshield for about six years.
