Question 59/60 headlight switch?

Does anybody have any info on the 60 model headlight switch? My shop manual shows it to be integral with the fuse panel with 7 or so fuses, but when i pulled mine out it only has one at the back. Is this a 57- 59 model switch? if it is does anyone have a wiring diagram or any other refrence so i can trace wiring? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks, Matt

Hi Matt,
The '59 model has 2 fuses on the back. The top one is the interior light fuse, and the bottom one is the turn signal fuse. there are two built in circuit breakers as well. one protects the headlights, the other protects the instrument lights, parking lights, and the stop and taillight cicuits. I'll see if I can find a circuit diagram for you.

Thanks Kenny, your diagram helps some. I think I might go with a later model switch with a regular fuse panel. thanks again, Matt
