OK. To close this out. Got a used panel from the junkyard and a pigtail with the main power plug. I was able to save 3 of the 5 wires/terminals but I had to splice 2 that I could not get out of the old melted plug. Mine was an '07 and the plug had a weird retainer for it-that was partially melted. The new pigtail came from an '09 I think. Same unsealed Metripack 280 plug, but no strange retainer holding the terminals in. Anyway, got that all put together and everything works great. And as a bonus I got a woodgrain bezel instead of the plain LT one I had. So lessons learned 1) do full diagnostics before firing the parts cannon. 2) don't get these switches wet. There are several posts about these getting wet and failing on the 'ole interwebs.
