Headlight switch wiring

[Frank G]

I was replacing the headlight switch on my 2000 Magna and while removing the old switch all the wires came off and I need a wiring diagram with wire numbers to replace the switch.

Thanks

This is the image of the connections on the headlight switch I used as a replacement. Note that the Duralast switch has a strap between two terminals that was removed.

Thank you so much for the picture and info.

Is this the pretty much the same switch for an 04 intrigue as well?

Thanks,
greg

Greg. I have no idea if the switches are the same. You could pull your wire list out and see it the wires to the headlight switch are the same. If so then it is probably a good chance they are the same.

Thanks Pete will do at a later date.
No issue at this point but saved your photo for future use

My RV is a National LTC built on a Country Coach DynoMax Chassis, you seem to have very specific wiring info about your coach. I am specifically looking for info related to the ""Ignition Fuse Panel". I had a blown fuse on a circuit called "ALT/Backup". Replacing the fuse with the key off, turns on some type of buzzing noise and a high pitch squeal, the buzz sounds like the normal noise that comes when first turning the ignition switch to run. Pulling the fuse again, stops the noise.

I don't think I can further troubleshoot this problem without learning something more about that circuit. If your rig is not on a DynoMax chassis, or if you don't have a fuse panel and circuit named exactly as above. Can you offer any suggestions?

Doug, I'm afraid my documentation does not show any fuse or wire identification with the information you have.

Since the circuit is active with the key off I would assume the circuit is part of your domestic components. You could perhaps verify this by turning off your house battery with the "salesman" switch. If the noise does not begin again with the fuse installed then you have at least identified a group of components that are controlled by that fuse.

If the circuit is on the domestic system then I'm not sure there will be any comparison with our coaches since those components are installed when the house is added to the chassis. If it were on the chassis side then there may be some comparison.

My immediate thought on the squeal is that it may be an electric motor with a bad bearing.

Sorry that I can't come up with anything specific.

Pete, thanks for the response. I verified that the circuit in question is indeed active with the key off and the salesman's switch off. Like with headlights, door step, horn and various other circuits, and unlike cabin 12v interior lighting, vent fans, and the generator starting circuit (Circuits that you are calling the domestic system). So I didn't find the source or the problem components, but thanks for looking at your schematics.
