One of the best repair videos I have seen. You didn't waste time talking about how long you have owned your car, what the mechanic said he would charge, and why you bought a G6 vs a Hummer. You had good lighting and got to the point. Possibly most importantly you had someone else hold the camera so you could use both hands for the repair and not give use shots of your floor mats while fumbling with your tools and the camera.

A mechanic quoted me $193 to fix, said it would take a “little under an hour.” My boyfriend and I watched the video, went and bought the part $50, borrowed a friend’s wrench set and had it fixed in less than 15 minutes. Thank you!!

I know next to nothing about cars but, I knew I didn't want to pay a mechanic a few hundred to fix my blinker switch so I hopped on here and found your video, ordered the part off Ebay for $22 and followed along with your video to install it. So easy to do with your simple and clear instructions. Thank you!!!😊

A mechanic was going to charge me 300 plus dollars to do this...told me you would have to take steering wheel apart and part would cost 70 bucks and take about 2 hours to do...this is why I don't trust mechanics or dealers that do auto repair..I still have yet to find a honest one...so that's when I took my phone out and told him that there is something he should see..there was a woman behind me and saw the video I showed him...she looked at me..looked at him..and turned around and walked out lol...the mechanic was super pissed...I get they need to make a profit but..come on...

$300 !?! Wow! I didn't even go to a mechanic for mine but I thought about it. I was guessing maybe $150 to $175 - but $300? Sheesh! I decided to take a chance on KZbin and this video was the first to pop up. Described it beautifully with good detail. I went to Auto Zone, bought the switch for $45 plus a 7mm socket and changed it myself in about 20 minutes. Works perfectly! Thank you, Martin! Wonderful help!😉👍

The literally happened to me today when I went to get inspection. Mechanic said 70 for the part and 100 for 2 hours of labor because the high beams would come on with rt signal. He told me that it would be 30 if I didn't have fog lights and that it was going to 70 because I did...$200 bucks for a small fix, no thanks.

If it's been maintained nicely it's probably worth it. The G6 was a pretty nice car for its time. 170k is a bit high, but if the price is decent and it's been maintained I say go for it.

Has anyone tried to spray or clean end piece that turns off on headlights with a contact aerosol spray into the crevice or opening to try and get good contact? My lever is not making good contact here turning on lights as testing it works sometimes and not Zoo bad there is no way to take it apart as the rest of the lever switch works great. I have concluded my head lights not working are due to poor contact at this turn area. Had to ask
