50plywood Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Does anyone know where the different contacts on the back of the 50 Plymouth headlight switch go? Most of my wiring was all messed up so I am rewiring and want to make sure where these contacts go. They are labeled with P T H and I. Thanks.

TodFitch Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Without looking at a wiring diagram, I'd guess P=power, T=tail lamps, H=headlights and I=Instrument lights. Now let me dig out the 46-54 service manual and see if I can find a wiring diagram. Pretty hard to read my reprinted manual, but I think the above is correct. Volt-ohm meter or continuity tester will say for sure how the switch is contacts make and break and thus how it should be connected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50plywood Posted February 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Thanks, That would make sense. I'll see if that works out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

50plywood Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Thanks Desotodav, That diagram is a big help. Thanks for the help. Now I'll work on the six wires from the turn signal switch. that should be fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobT-47P15 Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 There is usually a wiring diagram in the back of the Repair/Service manual for each model. They can be found for sale on eBay, as either original or reprint. A parts manual is also very handy. All that wiring gets confusing.
