Default Dimmer Switch Actuator

I was inside my steering column a few days ago to tighten it up and this little plastic piece for my dimmer switch fell out. For the life of me, i can not figure out how it goes back in place. Can anyone send some closeup pics of how it goes together? Thanks in advance.

It is a tiny plastic piece that goes inside the column and somehow attaches to turn signal stalk to cut high beams on when stalk pulled.

I am going to be digging in the top of the column very soon to figure out why it won't click and dim my headlights. They are stuck on bright.... Does yours still work a least?
