I will test a bit more tomorrow. The relay is functioning properly and it's sending voltage when light switch is depressed fully. Chris.

Without looking at the book again I'd be highly suspicious of the high/low switch on the column, but blest if I can see how that would affect the clock, which is (supposed to be) tied directly into a 30 line passing through the headlight switch - for no better reason than that the switch had a spare 30 terminal on it, so they used it. > > Yrs, > d > >
