Title: Three position dash panel switch
Post by: emptyhead on September 20, 2014, 04:42:19 PM

While I was at the pa military show this weekend rummaging through some parts boxes I ran across  an m 8/m20 dash panel swith that looked awful close to the halftrack dash panel switch with the 3 position resistor on the back of the switch. Does anyone have a m8 tm to cross reference the number to see if they match. Thanks

Not the headlight switch steve, the rotory switch. I think it controls the dash lights dimming them. Thanks

i was wondering if that was what you where referring to.

the panel light rheostat (dimmer) doesn't really have three positions though so that through me.
