Overdrive stopped working!

The end piece of the shifter on my truck recently broke off. This is the plastic piece with the overdrive button and the overdrive "on/off" indicator. Thus I had the plastic piece with the overdrive wires hanging out of the shifter bar. I pushed the overdrive button on and off to make sure it worked. I could only get the overdrive to turn off after pushing the button several times. I removed the overdrive switch from the end of the shifter. This switch has the end button, led indicator, and 3 prong male connectors.

Has anybody had their overdrive on/off capability suddenly stop working like this? I'm thinking that this switch went bad, and is not something more serious.

The part number on the switch is F58A-76550-AB. Does anybody know where I can find components like this?

Thanks
