Map light Switches

2000 Excursion Are the map light switches individually replaceable or are they part of some vast assembly? Mine just came apart and I had to remove the bulb since it failed in the on position. Ford parts guy was no help, he wants to sell me the whole overhead for $900. Crazy if he is right.

I can't find the switches on the diagram. The ones on the diagram are for the vent wings, rear.

Let me try this, lets start fresh.

what are you looking for? and what does it do, and where are they located?

I'll give it go and see what I come up with.

The map light switches on the overhead center console that control the map lights inside the domme light bezel on the overhead center console. Simple push switches. Push on-push off.

I attach a not to pic, the # show the switchs only being serviced in the assy. The counterman looks to be correct. send me your vin number and a email and i'll give you a quote and see if I can save you a few bucks off the $900 price.

You can also try a junkyard if you're not too proud to get one that's gently used...
