Re: 39 Headlight Dimmer Switch
Posted by HH56 On 2018/5/6 15:20:00
Did you mean 5 pole dimmer switch or 5 wire? Schematics and parts manual show a normal 3 terminal dimmer switch but there are 5 wires connected. I suspect the switch can be replaced with a regular universal 3 terminal two position dimmer switch available from Napa and others if it is shorted.
There were two headlight switch assys in 39 -- an early and late version. Wiring is almost the same between the two but there is a wire to the right front lamp with a relocated position on the later switch. If someone wired using the other version as a guide or the wrong diagram that might be part of the problem.
