On the Horn/Dip switches from the period when the dipping of the headlight was arranged by canting the lamp-reflector with a solenoid, the Horn/Dip switch only had the function to switch on or off the current for that solenoid. In that case only one cable left the Horn/Dip switch to operate the change of the headlights from “main” to “dipped”. In the later Horn/Dip switches a pair of alterable points change the current from “Main” or “Dipped” by moving the handle. In that case 2 cables leave the Horn/Dip switch to feed the lamps. It is possible with some “fiddling” of the Horn/Dip switch to convert the early type in such a manner, that lamps which have not the canting the lamp-reflector system, get either the current for the “Main” or for the “Dipped” status. The alteration of the original condition needs only a 3mm hole drilled in the Bakelite of the Horn/Dip switch body, and is easy reverted when wanted. Gerhard

Kevin I have not heard back from you and that may as before may be emails going astray. Are you around?
