Re: High beam switch?

thx guys. i tackled the problem, with ya'lls help. previous owner had tried jumping the external vr and failed. he was feeding the alternator with the white wire & had jumped the voltage regulator on the hidden underside. i'm now getting 14-14.4V off the alternator (13 something under a load). i went with the 85 silverado alternator which puts out 78 amps. in the engine compartment, i'm golden. going under the dash this weekend, hopefully... this forum is a powerful resource. thx again
