    The high beam dimmer switch is a smallish silver thing on the floor almost never the paring brake. They are readily available. . Here, they are normally in stock at Canadian Tire in the 'Help' brand section of the shelves. The package says for Chrysler but the Ford part is identical.

    ok thanks for your answer.

    I search pictures because a lot of bad handymen (the former owners) attempted car restoration.

    Right now, I'm trying to repair the electric system

    For fun, try to find the high beam dimmer switch : :cussing:

    What a mess! I can see where the dimmer is supposed to be, clearly enough. Good luck finding it. Some people should never be allowed under the dash of a car.
