RE: [T3] Lights


Yeah but still I think if the rear lights don't work AT ALL there is
something wrong with this theory.  Of course, 1/2 an hour with a wiring
schematic and a good meter would tell the tale!  
I would think that if the front lights and rear lights were reversed at
the switch, the rear lights would go out when the headlamps are on while
the front lights would stay on all the time...please be sure to let all
of us know what the problem boils down to...

Now that you've forced me to think about this a bit, I have to admit
that you 
and Russ must be right. There must be different contacts in the switch
for the 
front and rear circuits. As Russ said, switching the wires on these
terminals 
would make the difference.
