Headlight switch wiring help..

I bought a new headlight switch for my 37 Ford. It is a GM switch. I also have a GM pigtail. I think it came from a 1979 Pontiac Grand Prix. The wires are:
RED
GREEN
YELLOW
BROWN
ORANGE
BLACK
and two WHITE wires together..

Does anyone know where these go?? Thanks.. Al

 

Hey..
Had issues along yours..
Go to "wiring 101" has a bunch of diagrams of GM stuff. If you can't locate pm me
Pontiac Slim

 

Painless Performance has a lot of diagrams. Here is their GM switch wiring diagram.

 

Fordcrager.. According to the diagram from Painless.. Both the red and the black go to a + Positive.. They both are like 12 gauge wires..

 

Al,

I just installed one of these switches a couple of days ago, and here is how I wired it.

There wasn't a number for the Dome and interior lights, on the switch, so I'll call it "0"

0 = Dome and Interior light return
1 = Battery (on my old switch, I ran this wire to the ignition switch, this time to an always hot connection; that way I always could turn on the headlights without turning on the ignition)
2 = Dash lights
3 = No connection
4 = Tail lights
5 = Fuse box
6 = Dimmer switch
7 = Park lights

Wiring it this way, gives you power to the headlights and park lights all of the time; and all of your other lights are fused.

 

In the previous post I referred to contact numbers 1-7, these are the numbers that are on my new Cole Hersee switch P/N 71092-02.

Using the Painless diagram, here is the conversion that I used.

1 = 928 Battery
2 = 930 Dashlights
3 = Not connected
4 = 929 Tail lights
5 = 928 Battery (this is the one I ran to a fuse)
6 = 907 Dimmer
7 = 927 Park lights

 

Thanks.. Al
