914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Headlight switch differences?

Posted by: KaptKaos Dec 26 2010, 11:51 PM

I have the 76 that I am slowly pulling parts from. I began to pull the headlight switch, and noticed that it has lots of connections. I didn't pull it yet, because I wanted to see if there were differences between '73 headlight switch and '76 headlight switch.

Anyone know?

TIA

there are 10 and 11 terminal types; market price here is about $50, the rheotstat is the point of failure, but there is a repair procedure on the bird board for refurbishing them

I used a 73 for parts for my 74. The switch was different between these years - for me. I ended up splicing the extra wire to one of the other terminals.
