Yo, Vinney!

(sorry).

Dude, I can scan you a pic, better yet I can pop the thing up on the web
BUT I am going to be showing an electrical diagram. I'd think this won't
help you plug the switch back on the socket/loom.

Can you explain whether you cant find the end of the wire the switch
goes on, was there wire cutting involved, or what exactly?

BTW- if the Emergency Flasher switch isn't installed, the Parking Lights
won't work as the power runs through one to the other. Weird, isn't it?
