I'm not saying the switch isn't bad, but before you drop whatever at the junkyard or a new one at $140, make sure you test out that wire thoroughly. The factory service manual will have the correct info (available at a library) or see if ChevyTech chimes in with his vast knowledge and collection of diagrams.

Or get another motor and see if it works.
