Sure the whole turn signal switch went south? Most of the time it's only the actuating cam that goes bad. Those are cheaper and easier to replace.

The wires on the male end are broken and the black housing looks like it got hot and melted sometime in it's life. I found another male end at the junk yard, but i am going to splice my TSS with the good black housing, did you get all of that.....

I would try the Napa store. If you can't find one, post here and I'll see what I can do.

I went to the chevy dealer. Looks like chevy changed this connection, and discontinued the old one, the problem with that is that you have to buy a adapter plug.....at the tune of $50.00 doesn't make sense or cents.. I soldered the two turn signal switches wiring together to make one good! the problem now is that the Male connector in the main wiring harness is melted to??? so I am trying to remove it and locate another. not sure how it comes apart. I tried using a small spade screwdriver but I didn't have much luck. If you have a wiring harness with the male end and a good turn signal swt. lets talk. The solering went well and it looks good, But it's still cobbled up,. Thx

aftermarket switches come with adapter cable last time I purchased one.
