Title: Column light switch question
Post by: hudsonhenry on June 18, 2011, 12:03:48 AM

I'm in the process of building a custom wiring loom for my 500 and have a question. I assume that the 500 is the same as an early 126 with a lights on switch on the dash and then a three position arm on the steering column. My question is this: which order are the lights? side top of the arm, main middle, dipped bottom or is the order different?.

Thanks

Nigel

I have an interesting column switch: the lever cannot be pushed upward only downward (high beam works though)...

Yep, tis one in the same :$


Thanks for the replies, I though it might be that way around, I can't get my column levers to work right. I have off at the top with a pull back flash, main beam in the middle and dipped at the bottom again with a pull back flash. I am using the original column switches to run to relays and then onto a custom loom that incorporates the wiring for the cooling fan, electric water pump, digital controller etc. I must have something around the wrong way but I cant work out what!
