Blackout lights.....

[Dave87]

OK I'm sure this has been covered before but I've had no luck finding it. How do I get the blackout lights to work? The switches are missing. The service lights work. I looked under the dash and there are two wires in what I believe is the plug that goes to the switches that are missing. I would love to have the stock switches.

Basic Operational instructions are found in the -10 TM.

Wiring schematics are in the -20 and -34 TMs

OK I'm going to regret asking but what is the -10 TMs and -20 and -34 TMs? I get TM is technical manual. Would that be in the GM service manual? The only reason I ask Is I have a shop manual for a 1984 Chevy pickup and it has some military stuff in it.

Ill cover the easy part. Make sure the switch is set to B.O. Marker or B.O. Drive, I cant remember if any dash lights need to be on as well. Mine work and you can see them in the day light shading with your hand. They will not be bright, just barely visible for anyone who has never seen them working before. Markers are the little box under the turn signal light, the forward headlight is up under the half circle cover under the drivers headlight

You won't regret it!

Right click on the links, and save them to your computer. I suggest you create a folder and label it CUCV TMs. Once you save them, you can read them quickly, anytime. Simply put, the higher the ending number(-10, -20, etc..) the more complex the information. The TMs ending with -P, are parts books with pictures and part numbers. Most of the CUCV part numbers are actually GM part numbers!
