62 ignition switch wiring help needed!!!
I need to know if anyone can identify the posts on the back of the OEM ignition switch of my 62 flareside. My wiring diagrams (I have the Detroit Iron CD version) is not very clear. I am using a new (OEM) switch with a new Kwik-Wire harness. Which is the hot feed to the switch? The large post in the center or the #10 yellow wire?
Thanks as always for your wisdom.
Tim

According to the diaghram I have, the middle post is for running accessories like the cigarette lighter. The "B" terminal is for running power from the battery to the whole truck.

Thanks Mark! My problem is the new switch nor the old switch have any markings! No "b", no "s", nothing. Any other thoughts are greatly appreciated!
