There are two little tabs on the side of the plug, but they yield nicely to the pressure of removal (at least mine did). There isn't a trigger that must be released.
I'm not sure what switches interchange, but I do know that the switch for a 64 is different than a switch for a 60 Chrysler. A friend needed one for his 60 Windsor and we compared it to the one I bought for my Lebaron. The connection terminals were different. He got his switch from Frank Mitchell.
Cool, so there is no "trigger" release to squeeze or push to remove the connector, it just pulls off? What year's and models of Chryslers us the same one as the '64 Imperial?

Lupe,
It's much easier to pull the harness off the switch BEFORE you remove the switch from the dash. If you can't get it off with one hand, use a small screwdriver to carefully pry between the light switch body and the harness plug.After the plug is off the switch, you can just push it out of the way. Oh, and by the way, disconnect the battery first. It will be easy to get your hand up there to push in that little button to release the knob shaft, just have a few band-aids ready. I used a great tip I got from this list, I taped a dime on my fingertip to push in that little button. And did I mention to disconnect the battery terminal before you reach up there. A small mirror also helps to find where to reach. The harness plug removes from the switch, toward the right, and the little button is on the left side of the switch.
I bought my light switch from Advance Auto Parts. They had it on the shelf. I'm sure AutoZone would have it, too. All my lights function properly now.
Good luck,
