"Think I found the culprit - looks like a broken connection on the rheostat. Studying the thing for a little bit lead me to this."

"So it seems that the gray wire is not getting power at the headlight switch, despite power being fed properly. Everything looks good on the outside of the switch, but I’m going to attempt disassembly."

"Thank you both gents. I had the connector installed incorrectly - it was one blade too far over. Now headlights work as expected. Still diagnosing dash lights. The single gray wire is getting 0.34v. The red, blue and green wires on the headlight…"

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments

Many thanks,
