A job well done Jim! You are thorough.

Fans,
Now the rest of the story!
I finally got it out with my plasma cutter, just kidding. It was a
tussle.
I tried the pushing the button in and turning the collar but no luck.
Finally after retracing my steps and I noticed with the button pushed in there
was something stopping the collar from turning.
As I have the dials out of the dash I was able to reach a finger in back of
where the hang up was on the collar. There was a pin on the back side of the
collar protruding through the dash sheet metal. Thus the collar would not spin
off the nut
Finally I removed the Ash Tray insert and was able to get a grip on the
Switch and turned it Counter Clockwise, Back Side Direction. The switch does
have two flat sides fitting a 7/16 Open end small wrench. Unscrewing it
the switch became lose and tidies to finish. Bottomline is to first remove the
ash tray insert, disconnect the two terminals from behind,
start turning the switch by holding the collar against the dash
panel. This will release the collar nut which resides behind the "Fan Speed
Indicator". Be careful not to strip the switch threads when taking it out
through the slot in the dash. It should really be screwed out of the slot.
Now , the easy way if your dash is not apart. Just peal of the
"Fan Speed Indicator” off the face of the collar and there is the nut on the
front side. Just remove the nut and off comes the collar. Thats all there is to
it. Label, painted metal, is stuck to the collar by a bead of some sort adhesive
like RV sealer?
I used a pick like the dentists use.
Check the pictures below to get a feel for whats involved.
I will probably need a new switch, another call & $$ to Joe. Better
save than sorry.
      Hope this is helpful.
Good Night
Jim
