This truck was delivered new to Selfridge Air National Guard base in Michigan. On 6/3/92, it was sold to my school with just under 57000 miles. It's now mine, with just under 69000 miles on the clock. North Adams is just a little bitty town; the school used it as a plow truck and I would surmise that the mileage is actual. :~)
Anyway... the plug on the headlight switch melted a little. There's a big multi-function switch added to the light wiring that was part of the 24v military conversion. It looks like it says D.C. Electronics, part number DC2750. Google isn't being helpful in finding documentation on how to test, verify wiring and actually use this thing. Some of the wiring that has been done over the years by the school's bus mechanic looks to be a little questionable. A couple small wires are cut off right at the bulkhead connector on the firewall; at the factory headlight switch, some of the added military light switch wires have been disconnected, others are still hooked up. It also has the infamous Dodge "melted amp gauge" issue and the wires have simply been connected together behind the dash.
Does anyone have info on how extensive the military wiring conversion was on these? Or can point me to some documentation for the extra light switch? Recommended amp gauge replacement?
