READ ONLY    PRINT   SAVE  Hi-Beam/Low-Beam Floor Switch 444-544 posted by  BernardP on  Fri Jul 3 13:20 CST 2009 Author: [PROFILE] [EVERY POST] [THREADS] [BEST POSTS]     [IGNORE ALL POSTS] last visit: Sat Nov 21 13:14 CST 2009 [RELATED] My Hi-Beam/Low-Beam floor switch doesn't switch to high beam. I took the thing out, cleaned everything, and actually thinking about moving the switch in form of a flicker switch to the dash, as it's in the way of my left foot anyway. The switch has 3 terminals, marked as follows from left to right: 56b, 56, 56a. There are 4 wires going to the switch: left: yellow middle: gray right: 2 x red Theoretically, yellow and gray are low beam and high beam (or vise versa) and red is power, which would be coming from the light switch. But why are there 2 red wires? Can somebody bring "light" into this? Thanks, Bernard Mark this post as an answer to my question<- Use this feature to mark quality replies to your post.

A couple of minutes looking at a 140 wiring diagram, a bit of light wiring (the harness that reached down to the footwell also reaches nicely into the back left corner of the engine bay) and now I have headlight flashers and dimming via the stalk. And the foot switch that crumbled and left me in the dark one night (rather exciting, twisty country road and oncoming traffic, sudden darkness accompanied by a shower of sparks down by my feet) is gone. -- '63 PV544 rat rod, '93 Classic #1141 245 +t Mark this post as an answer to my question<- Use this feature to mark quality replies to your post.

I prefer and stock the Bosch replacement switch. The extra small red wire is for the high beam indicator light on the dash. -- Eric Hi Performance Automotive Service (formerly OVO or Old Volvos Only) Torrance, CA 90502 Mark this post as an answer to my question<- Use this feature to mark quality replies to your post.
