Classic/Antique Car Repair: 1970 Olds delta B body, chassis service, delta 88

Question
QUESTION: I have a 1970 Olds Delta 88 B body two door. With a chassis service manual, and a fisher (GM) body manual for that car, I still cannot find out how to remove the driver side door jamb interior light switch, one in there currently is inoperable. Thanks


ANSWER: The switch screws into the door post. Once unscrewed the wire can be disconnected from the back.

QUESTION: Thanks brad, the switch physically is located on the hinged side of the door (2 dr hardtop), I cannot figure what I need to do to get to the switch. It has a jamb nut for attaching and adjustment on the outer side, but I cannot locate how to disconnect or remove it from the back (inside) side. Looks like I have to remove part of the dash board to access it.

Answer
Some of these cars used a switch that snapped into the hole and was held by a couple of springs. They had a flat bezel and can be pried out. If it has a hex on it you must unscrew it. The wire should be long enough to allow the switch to come out far enough to disconnect the switch.
