Before removing any switch, disconnect the battery negative terminal and reconnect it after refitting the switch. To remove the ignition switch/steering lock, start by taking out the airbag rotary connector and disconnecting the wiring connector from the base of the left-hand switch. Lift the switch assembly up and remove it from the steering column, noting that the two switches are a combined assembly and cannot be further dismantled. Refitting is the reverse of removal. The heater/ventilation switches are integral with the heater control panel, so remove the panel to access them. The heated rear window switch is also part of the heater control panel. For the driver's side panel switches, which include the electric door mirror switch, headlight height adjustment switch, ESP switch, and stop/start on/off switch, remove the driver's side switch panel, then turn the trim panel over, undo the retaining screws, and withdraw the relevant switch cluster. Use two small screwdrivers to depress the retaining lugs and withdraw the switch from the cluster, then refit the switch and trim panel in reverse order. For electric window switches, unclip the door switch trim panel from the armrest, disconnect the wiring connectors, release the retaining tabs, and withdraw the switch from the rear of the trim panel before refitting. The hazard warning light switch is located at the top center of the facia; remove the radio/CD player to access it, disconnect the wiring connector, and push the switch out of the facia. Refit the switch in reverse order. For centre console switches, unclip the switch panel, disconnect the wiring connectors, undo the screws, and remove the switch mounting bracket. Release the retaining clips to withdraw the relevant switch from the mounting bracket and refit it in reverse order. The door warning switches are part of the central locking system components, while the luggage area light switch is integral with the boot lid/tailgate lock. Map reading/courtesy light switches are part of the interior light assembly and cannot be renewed independently. For steering wheel switches, which include audio control and cruise control switches, remove the airbag from the center of the steering wheel, undo the retaining screws, and disconnect the relevant switch panel from the side of the airbag before refitting the switch in reverse order.
