A Dodge owner who posted under the name Redneck came up with the proper transistor to install instead of the original to make it work the panel lights on positive ground cars.https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=163962#forumpost163962


In the second or middle photo of the 535 the transistor is the little 3 wire black plastic item at the top of the photo. The correct orientation of the base, collector and emitter leads need to be soldered in place of the transistor presently there and it takes care since solid state devices are generally heat and static sensitive.
