Headlight Dash Switch mkIII

Putting the dash back together on the 65 Sprite unfortunately my pictures before disassembly are letting me down.

3 sets of wires for headlight switch:
1 double red
1 blue
1 blue/red

Where do they go? Switch has three sets of terminals, I think the red goes on the bottom of the switch. Help!

If you have a good wiring diagram it gives you the terminal numbers along with the wire colors. Look on the back of the switch and you will see the numbers next to the positions.
Just followed those yesterday on Rick's car and it worked perfectly.

Thanks guys Pictures are worth a thousand words. The wiring diagram is nice but the switches are in the dash and I can't see the back now.

Yes, pulling the switches out is sometimes necessary - especially when some numbskull puts them all in the 'wrong' places. Like the DPO (dim present owner).

BillM to the rescue!! :wink:

OK, we both needed reading glasses for the wiring diagram and the switch numbers so keep that in mind unless you are in the 'youngun' category. :wink:
