I am fixing a 68 40 and the wiring is almost back up to par.

The question is the two bullet orange parking lights on the bottom of the front bib come on with the parking switch but go off when the switch activates the headlights is this correct or do I have a faulty headlight switch

I was leaning on a bad switch because my brake light switch is fed from the headlight switch and the brake switch has no 12v feed.

thanks

I think the bib lights go out with the headlights, but I could be wrong, are ya sure about the stoplight switch feeding off the HL switch??
Cause this makes no sence or it would not work with them off.....I have a wiring diagram manual for a 64 down at work and can check tommorrow.....
Mark will know but he may not be online for another few hours....

Thanks Butch stop light switch resolved I dont have a specific manual for that cruiser but I do have a bastard hayns manual and it says that the brake switch is fed from a constant hot off of the headlight switch.

Yea, the lower bib lights go off with the headlights.
They are only on with the parking lights.
