Hello All
I have been working on getting my bus back on the road after sitting for over a year. I've had air leaks, no power to the main switch and dash, and no headlights and break lights.
I fixed the air leaks. Got the dash power back by manually activating the master relay. But I still don't have headlights. Low beam and high beam. I do not get the brake light on the dash. I tried switching the ice cube relay but that didn't work. My electric schematic is blurry and difficult to read so I am having trouble following the circuit. You're thoughts?
On Tom's C-3 the head lights and brake lights are pull from the Vanner above the starting batteries, if you have the center tap for 12 v if you hook it up wrong it will blow the lights check your bulbs 1st to rule those out ,if you have 12+ volts at the plug with a meter then the headlights are shot
If no luck there, check dimmer switch. They can act up from extended sitting. Cycle several times to see if the issue.
Did you get the brakes released? nothing to do with the lights but was wondering?
Did you reset circuit breaker on vanner?
I did not reset the breaker on the vanner. I will try that.

That was my thought too Niles!
;D BK ;D
When my headlights died, it was the foot dimmer switch. And NAPA had one! I thought that would be a junk yard easter egg hunt. I miss those old things. Wish I had one in my F 150.
easy to add one. Just do it.
FYI Brake lights won't work without air either if you didn't already know.

Not ALWAYS true! Many times brake lights won't go out w/o air to release the brakes!
;D BK ;D

I guess you got me there. But you still need air for them to work one way or the other.
