Headlight Switch Question

Hey guys i was hoping that you could help me with something. I am rewiring my truck (66F-100 Custom Cab Camper Special) with a painless performance wiring harness. I am almost done with it. Now I am hooking up the headlight switch and i dont know what wires go where. I have 7 wires and 8 places to connect wires. The 7 wires are 1. Red and Black which is hot. 2. A blue and yellow wire that goes to the dimmer switch. 2 brown wires one that goes to the tail light and one to the parking lights. 1 wire that is also hot for the dome light and a wire that goes to the dome light. and 1 more wire that goes to the instrument panel lighting. Now on my headlight switch i have 8 places to connect wires and a few of them are marked. If your looking at it with the switch down. The top left has a B on it the one below the B has an R and the one below that isnt marked. The middle top one isnt marked and the one below that has an H. The top right has an A and the right middle has a D1 and below that the one is marked D2. Now i need to know where all the wires go. I kinda feel bad for always asking questions because I havent been able to help anyone out. Brannon

Headlight Switch Question

I would suggest getting a wiring diagram from this site. 6$ for the book is a good deal, and will save you a lot of headaches. If you can wait until Monday when I get home I'll check my wiring diagram.

Headlight Switch Question

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 24-Jun-02 AT 01:48 PM (EST)]62stepside are you saying there is a wiring diagram available for $6 ? If that is true where do I sign up? I'd like to have turn signals and dash lights but need a diagram to troubleshoot the problems a previous owner created. OK I just looked at it in the online store now my question is how close is the 63 wiring diagram going to be to my 61? All the work I have to do is under the dash. I've got wires added and others cut or missing and am having a hard time telling what belongs and where it went or is supposed to go.
