The Owner's manual for my '48 Cub indicates that the four positions on the light switch are Off/Dim/Bright/Rear. I read in another forum the positions are LowCharge/HighCharge/Dim/Bright. My switch has a resister coil for dim and another resister for low/high charging. After cleaning and re-installing my switch, the lights operate like the latter. Is this correct or did I assemble the switch incorrectly? Thanks for the help.

Bill, If your charging system is original, I believe that low charge, high charge, dim, bright is right. If you use the low/high charge feature, that is: high charge when it hasn't run for a while and short runs and: low charge when you use it a lot and on long runs, it will keep your battery in good condition. The trick to using 6 volt systems without a voltage regulator is to keep the battery charged without cooking it dry. Using the low/high switch should should help you do it.

Bill you can wire those switches in either configuration. My neighbor had an M with the low charge, high charge, dim and bright. His other M was wired as your manual indicates. It is the same switch. It is just a matter where you connect the wires in back.
