could always visit a wreckers for a replacement. have you checked out the wiring at the base of the stalk? .... wiring 'may have' broken?.


Ps. doesn't the stalk wiring supply an earth for the low/high beam lights?.

You could try looking for an AU combination switch on ebay, like this...

Is this what you need? I have been trying to attach pics of the wiper/indicator stalks mounted on the centre boss that we took out of my AU Tradesman when we retrofitted cruise control from a wreck. The unit we took out was in perfect working order and has been in safe storage. Sorry I can't work out how to add pics!!! Site kept saying attachment failed???

Steve - most people use someone [like postimage.org or flickr.com] to 'host' the pics & then with the link supplied paste it in your message, which when posted shows the link you pasted in your reply as a pic.


cheers

Yep likely, between this and the bloody locking system I'm starting to feel like Ford Australia is taking advantage of me 😳
