headlight switch issues
I needed to replace my headlight switch in a 1966 f100. A few switches have died. I had to replace the ignition along with the wiper switch. I'm doing the replacement alongside an entire rewire with painless harness #10104. All of my exterior lights were working until I swapped switches, and now my headlights aren't working. I put the old one back in to check to see if the headlights were working on it and they are not. I don't see any blown fuses. We are still in the middle of wiring up the gauge cluster. Could something behind the cluster be the issue? I know the headlights and dimmer are tied to a little light that shows that the brights are on. That is also not working now.

You are probably all over this so don't take offense...I rewired my 1966 F100 with a Kwik Wire 14 circuit system and learned on the fly. I was having issues with one of my circuits and it turned out that the fuse in the new fuse box for that circuit was blown. Not sure if I did it or if it came that way. I spent many hours doing continuity tests when the fuse was the issue.
