HOOD POSITION SWITCH

[Quiller303]

Somehow I managed to break off the plastic tabs on my hood position switch. This is the plunger type switch located under the hood by the passenger cowl. Can someone please help me with a part # so I can replace? I'm not having any luck. Thanks in advance!

Steve white motors has excellent illustrations with part numbers. Good prices on parts too.

I should have thought of that Bull. Mopar part # is 5026211AA. It is called an Under-hood switch.

Ok I have to know. How did you break it?

I was installing the ZL1 Addons race cooldown override. Basically, a piece of plastic that holds down the hood position switch to fool the car and allow use of the tazer race cooldown with the hood open. This permits much faster cooling. After installing, I wasn't sure it was seated all the way down and thought it was holding up my hood ever so slightly. I tapped the piece down with a plastic mallet and the clips on the switch snapped.

No harm done. It was a quick fix. Replaced the switch.
