Warren,
I thought that registered was only for parolees and sex offenders.
Now serious. Is your headlight High-Low beam switch in the steering collum? I had a turn signal problem years ago and mine is all in the collum and I didn't want to tear into it unless I was sure, so what I did was go to NAPA and buy a cheap switch I could put where I could reach it. I then found the wires coming out of the collum and took the ones that went from the plug in connector and cut them, leaving plenty of wire to splice them back together and ran them to the cheap push button switch. This let me completely bypass the collum. Everything worked fine and the problem was in the connector itself, which was a lot easier than tearing the collum apart. I just took the wire out of the connector and checked the connections in it and the tab was bent. After straightening that, I spliced the wires back together and have never had a problem since.
