Horn rod/light switch
 

Have removed the steering and horn rod in my 31 CCPU. On reassembly, what are the positions for all the light switch, as referenced to a clock
Info much appreciated. Thanks Grant

It should be high beam 4 o'clock, low beam 5 o'clock, off at 6 o'clock and parking at 7 o'clock.

Interesting, I checked mine and I have low beams at 7 o'clock, off at 6 o'clock, and high beams at 4 o'clock...

Someone mixed up the wires at the headlight connections.

This is the way I did mine.

I just was able to switch wires around so I didn't have one bright headlight and one dim. Before I started I came here and found this post and also located nice wiring diagram. Thank you for everyone's help. Now the headlights run like they are supposed to.

I agree totally with Mike. That is how mine is set up.
