Wilson: These switches are very little different from the switches on the late model letter series tractors. If you can reduce the load on that switch to no more than 3 lights, they will last for years. I did this with my 560, 656 and 1066 each when I bought them, I can't tell you how it was done as I hired a guy in the business to do it. I know all he left on the factory switch were two head lights. If I remember correctly he had the rest on three circuits.
