Turn off engine. Observe ammeter at zero. Turn on headlights. Observe ammeter to get current used. Turn off headlights, turn on heater fan. Observer ammeter to get current used. etc. If I recall correctly, the 6006 sealed beam headlight is rated at 40 watts low beam. That would be just under 7 amps at 6v and you have two of them. Your tail lamps are rated at 0.75 amps each (brake light filament at 2.63 amps each). I have some of the bulb specifications you might want at: http://www.ply33.com/backmatter/lightbulbs.html Quote
