Anyone have any photos of the internals of a US left light switch date stamped
2 9
I think my internals may be incorrect as the high / low/ pa are all over the place.
Thanks

US didn't have the "Pa" on the Z1's, at least not an operating one. They were blanked off with a metal tab.

Mine is a early switch with just the horn button and the pa blanked with a plate
and no brown wire in the switch.
For some reason the wiring all seems ok but I think the switch may have the wrong contact plate or even the contact switch part fitted as they do not seem to line up correctly and the H L Pa light the lights in the wrong order.
I think a may have a bitsa switch.
Would just like to compare with some photo id or does anyone in the club repair switches.
:D :?:

if the pass switch is not used why don't you just swop over the headlight feed wires at the headlight connector?


i know the contact plate & the headlight switch are different on the european models
