Someone tried to steal the fire and broke the ignition lock and the housing and the switch. so I put a new switch in but I don't know where one of the plugs with the wires in it plugs into there. I don't see anything left and it's real tight to the back of the steering wheel where it goes and it can't go very far. so it's a short thin black one would like 6 or 6 wires in it. I don't have any lights when the car is running interior are dash.

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.

You indicate there are approximately six wires in it. Are you referring to a wiring harness? Also, what color are the wires in the harness? Finally, I attached a schematic of the headlight switch which indicates wire colors. Tell me if those colors correlate with what you have trying to find.

Let me know,
Joe
