Cool, so there is no "trigger" release to squeeze or push to remove the connector, it just pulls off?   What year's and models of Chryslers us the same one as the '64 Imperial?

Lupe,

It's much easier to pull the harness off the switch BEFORE you remove the switch from the dash. If you can't get it off with one hand, use a small screwdriver to carefully pry between the light switch body and the harness plug.After the plug is off the switch, you can just push it out of the way. Oh, and by the way, disconnect the battery first. It will be easy to get your hand up there to push in that little button to release the knob shaft, just have a few band-aids ready.  I used a great tip I got from this list, I taped a dime on my fingertip to push in that little button.  And did I mention to disconnect the battery terminal before you reach up there. A small mirror also helps to find where to reach. The harness plug removes from the switch, toward the right, and the little button is on the left side of the switch.

I bought my light switch from Advance Auto Parts.  They had it on the shelf. I'm sure AutoZone would have it, too.  All my lights function properly now.

 

Good luck,
