In Reply to: 12 volt lights on H and M posted by charlie M on July 22, 2011 at 11:47:26:

I have a 53 SM that I converted to 12v a few years back. For the light switch I remove it from the box and located the hot wire for the switch. next I removed the resistor - next I located the wire for the tail light hooked it to the switch - next I located the wire for the head light and hooked that to the switch. Now when I turn the lights on the dim position all the lights come on. (head and tail) When I rotate to the Bright position the head lights go out and only the tail light remains on. I don't remember anything about a high and low charge. Just a resistor to reduce the voltage to create the bright or dim lights. I would have like for the tail lights just to come on in the dim position and all come on the bright position. As I remember the two small bolts that hold the switch in the housing is a pain to install and when all the lights would work I left it alone. Hope this helps James

Today's Featured Article - Measuring with Calipers - by Staff. The legs of inside calipers are curved outward at the extremities to facilitate measuring small holes, while outside caliper legs have a large curve inward to increase their capacity for large work. Firm-joint calipers are adjusted approximately by the hands and then set to the feel of the work by tapping them on a metal surface. It is a common practice when opening calipers by this means to tap the top of the joint. It is better, if possible, to tap the inside of the legs, as repeated blo ... [Read Article]
