at 7:11 when he starts using the T25 and an wrench, I found an easier way. Crank the wheel full left and you can use a regular T25 screwdriver as the steering wheel cover flattens out on the top for access. Much easier, especially on re-assembly

Good video, what I understand from another video, the steering wheel can be turned to the 3 o’clock position (straight ahead being 12 o’clock) and then the bottom screw can be removed with a regular torx driver instead of a bit and a 1/4” wrench.

From the Rock Auto page on this switch. "Switch malfunctions can cause a variety of safety issues, including non-functioning brake lights, headlights, tail lights, turn signals, hazard lights or wipers. Because of its role, switch quality is vital. Each WVE switch is engineered to meet or exceed OE performance specifications and manufactured from the OEM preferred blend of nylon- and glass-filled plastic for exceptional strength, and includes premium copper-, nickel- or silver-plated electrical terminals to ensure robust electrical connectivity. WVE offers extensive selections of exact-fit/exact-function switches for foreign nameplate or domestic models. Designed using semi-precious metal contacts Each switch subjected to rigorous testing processes Complies with all federal motor vehicle safety standards Mounting and connectors identical to OE"

Replaced my turn signal switch today. The front torx screw you have to be very careful with it so not to strip it while turning the torx bit with a wrench. I put a flat head screwdriver against the bit to keep it pushed into the screw while breaking it loose with my 1/4th inch wrench. I bought a 1/4" ratcheting box wrench to make the removal easier.

This video was very helpful. I know it saved me at least $200 in labor. Plus, I was able to buy the part at a competitive price rather than paying the repair shop markup. I just finished this 'half-hour' job. It took me three days. The 'little pigtail' at 6:37 was a FREAKIN' NIGHTMARE! Getting it apart was easy. Putting it back together was near impossible. No room to get my hands or fingers in there. The whole job was a frustration of alignment when putting things back together. I think it would have been easier if I had removed the steering wheel, but I didn't want to mess with it. If I ever have to replace this stalk again, I will gladly pay someone to do it.

FYI if you don't have cruise control just replace the stalk with a cruise control one and shazam, you now have cruise. The pigtail that he mentions is for the cruise, the connector is just sitting there waiting for a mate :-). I have a WT model so no options and cruise was the one I missed the most.

Nice video. Helped me tremendously. However I still have a problem you might have an idea about. I've searched all the realms and nobody has had the same issue. I replaced my multi function switch and fixed my high beam coming on when using the right turn signal. Very common issue. But right before I replaced the switch I had another issue I thought was related to the switch... Every right turn signal bulb is lit and stuck on. Even when the key is off. Not blinking but constantly lit. Pulled fuse for rt signal and still getting 12v to every socket. Including the tow mirror led arrow. Even with all the bulbs out it's still lit up. Even on the dash. And keep getting "turn signal on" message. 2003 Yukon XL 1500

The Wrench and Torx bit is not necessary. There is a mark in the center of the horn plate. Turn the steering left till that mark lines up with screw. Then you can use normal torx. Your saving 10-15 not taking off the steering wheel. This will take seconds with cordless impact. Screws underneath should be reverse torx. That’s why so many break them.
