My Headlight switch broke!

Could someone please direct me to the links regardsin repairing the Head lamp switch on my 1990 348. Heck I might even buy a new one, but I think I remembering someone said they were rebuilding them.

 

Good one. Mine is half worn too. The stick sometimes spins in the bush in the switch. Ive pulled the stick out a few times. Is there a replacement bush ect......that can be bought?

 

Is yours the same as a 355??

 

I dont think they are.

 

Mine is just spinning also. I push it in lights go down, pull it out lights go up. Have no command of the high beam, low beam anymore. I can drive it, but I would like to fix it if possible. There were a bunch of threads about this a few months ago. I feel silly bring it up.

 

Yes you should.......
Nah. You are right. Mine spins sometimes and my brother said the same thing a while ago. He said pull the stick out, lights pop up. Push in, they come down. I didnt really understand at 1st. But when the stick came out, then I understood what he said.

So how's the weather down there Pap! You know I actually got trapped in Narita, right after 911, with about 30 people from there. One of the most emotionally significant events in my life. If it hadn't been for them I would have gone nuts. I still corrospond with some of them. I've never actually had the chance to visit there though. Best Regards Kent

 

Really? Wow! It is good to hear they helped you through the ordeal and that you still keep in touch. It is summer here in Aus at the moment. It gets REALLY REALLY hot here in Mount Isa. Yesterday was 40C(104F) and today seems hotter. Probably hit 42C today I reckon. You are welcome to visit anytime you like. I love it........

 

Thanks ND. But verrel repaired a 308 light switch assembley. We own 348's.
Can he repair 348 light switch assemblies now?? Is that what you are implying?

 

I think Fatbillybob is selling what you need. I bought some parts from him, and I think I remember seeing the light stalk for sale also.

Hey ND, you have any picts showing how to access the component?

 

Not me, man!

Yeah, PM me if someone wants it. I hear they are unobtainable. I race so don't need it and I always need $ for track tires.

 

So who made that stalk? Vitaloni, perhaps? Appears to be the same stalk on 93+ 348's and early 355's (part #154563 for both, $800+!).

The earlier 348 pre-93 column stalk was Vitaloni part # 12449, Ferrari pn 134062.

Surely Vitaloni put that column switch on some Alfa's or Fiats...

Top switch is 348, bottom is a later 355.
