I have a 2001 PT Cruiser Touring Edition, and today my fog lights were staying on, even though the turn lever/headlight knob wasn't pulled out, and the headlights in fact were off. After using Google, I came across many people who had the same problem, and they solved it by replacing the multi-function switch.

For the time being, I pulled fuse #8 from the fuse box by the driver's side left knee so that my fog lights would stay off. One person said the part # for a 2001 PT Cruiser is 5073049-AB, and he paid $52. I'd like to know a few things:

1) Does everyone think I need to replace the multi-function switch? Everything else works, just fog lights won't stay off. Sounds like a switch that is stuck in the On position. Could trying to adjust it fix the problem, instead of replacing it?

2) How do I find a part # for this? Is there a web page?

3) How do I install it myself if I go this route? What does installing it entail? Removing the steering wheel column shroud (covering) and some other stuff? Directions anywhere?
