      I found out that the headlight switch on the 49, the Ville lights stay on with the main lamps, yet on my 54, they don’t. Did the design change? I know it’s a minor thing, not too much to get concerned about as I do have a much larger fish to fry. Stupid master cylinder!

          Thanks Den, have to dig up that issue and see about it.

          OK, I’m looking at the article. I have wired the switch exactly as you show it on the top of page 24. I have continuity between terminal 1 and terminal 6 whenever the switch is on, at any position. Now, this isn’t a big deal to me as in Canada it’s not a failure if the front side lights go out when the headlights are on. But there is only continuity between terminal 1 and 6 in my 54 11B when the switch is set to Ville (stalk forward or back.) I’ve wired the BL to have relays for each function of the switch for a total of 6 plus one for the reverse light I have yet to install. Both horns are connected to terminal 2 horn 1 as I only wanted to use one relay for them plus I may add air horns at some point and wanted an unused terminal for them. So, I’m thinking maybe the design changed or maybe the car was registered in the U.K at some point in it’s life. Wouldn’t that mean that there is a U.K switch and a ROW switch?
