If you need a new combination switch, it is a fairly simple matter to get at it, you'll need a steering wheel puller, a locking plate compressor, and a phillips screwdriver. You can build a locking plate compressor / wheel pulled using a remotely thick peice of steel with three holes drilled at the right distance apart, make sure the middle one is big enough to get the steering column top through it so you can bolt it onto the shaft, then drive two screws down into the wheel, or down onto the locking plate

The combination switch that came with the truck is a turn signal with..

cruise control
high beam switch
intermitent wiper

pretty much the same kind of switch that you find in the camaro's
