H3 H3 headlight switch mod

[ReconH3]

Anyone ever tinker with the H3 light switch so that it stays off? Like removing the spring mechanism so it stays in the off position. I'm not an electronically inclined person so I'm hoping one that is has, or is willing to try this. I always see people that pull apart all types of dashes and switch panels to change or fix things, so I'm guessing this would be along those lines.

I thought Hunner might have done this.

I remember that post, but there was no final conclusion to his research.

Thanks. I've been getting some very useful info on plug configurations. There's two versions. 14 pin and 16 pin. SA one is 14 pin. I need to find out if mine is a 14 or 16 pin.

I've heard the S. African switches don't have the idiot switch. I'm interested in this mod if you can make it work...even if it means keeping the US version and removing the internal spring that always returns the switch to "auto".

My wife's Chrysler has a similar 4-position switch but, unlike the Hummer...it stays where you put it (rather than resetting at every startup). Perhaps it could be installed in the H3?
