Re: /5 Headlight wire question
Great pictures, today I will look at the board and try to identify the 30/51 terminal. This group of terminals is on the underside of the top of the headlight.schrader7032 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 07, 2023 6:17 amSome pictures of the headlight board in this thread:

Re: /5 Headlight wire question
I clearly see my red wire attached to the 30/51 terminal. I note your recommendation the wire in question attaches to the 30/51 terminal.wa1nca wrote: ↑Wed Jun 07, 2023 9:39 amTerminal 30/51 has the only large Red wire connected to the ignition switch which comes from the generator/battery, which has power all the time key in or out, so the headlight flasher switch will work anytime it is in the flash down position.

I am not 100 % sure how long this wire has been disconnected. I say this because after completing the reassembly of my restoration last September I had 1 unresolved lighting issue. The issue was with the speedometer instrument lighting and the parking light would not illuminate. Does this wire allow power to the 2 lights for the instrument panel and parking light? The wires to the instrument bulbs and parking light are Grey with Black tracer.
Thanks
