I wrote out a reply which said that I thought that the 2 lower tags at 7 and 5o'clock were the likely ones and then remembered that I had a spare switch here at home. With a meter, the only 2 contacts that I could get any readings at all on were the ones I posted. These readings weren't very consistant but I've never had it on a car so don't know the condition of the rheostat. Yes, I have been told not to assume things when doing this sort of check but I did so this time. If you drop the switch out of the dash, assuming(!) there is enough slack, it should be easy to bridge the terminals to check. A dark garage will help!
Good info Ron. I've got a mail to write to you about red light problems on an ES. I'd appreciate some insight if you've a few minutes.
