Blue ignition box on the top of the steering column, may well be the culprit. They like to burn up and the accessories are the first to go. If you need one make sure you tell them tilt or not two different switches. You don't have to drop the column to check it or change it, but it will make life a world easier.

Yes I was but you've got to get it unwrapped from around the brake pedal assembly(think that was it)
Honed ALOT of my skills on a 77 K5 I had that I believe was inspired by CW McCalls song "classified"

Auto parts store should have one for like 25 bucks or less just make sure the connectors are not melted . The only difference in switches is tilt or no tilt steering column
