Victoria Dome Light Wiring Diagram
 

Does anyone have a wiring diagram for a Victoria with two switches? I cannot find one anywhere. Closest I can find is the one in the Service Bulletins for a Town Sedan with one switch.

Where are the two switches?


The Victoria dome light originally came with only one that was on the passenger "B" post.

Never knew they had two switches, should not be difficult to wire up.

FSB pp.291,356,468 show single switch on right pillar for Fordor and Town Sedan. Doubtful the car rolled out the door with two switches.

If a switch is added it may be wired in series or parallel. Series requires both switches ON for light, either switch OFF turns it off. Parallel allows either switch ON for light, both must be OFF to turn it off.

That's all I could find as well. I'm going to wire in parallel.

What a hassle that would be. Maybe it is wired as a 'three way', as in a house. But then 'three way' switches (SPDT) would have to be used, if available (doubtful).
