    headlight/BO switch

    The 3way switch is new to me as is my deuce. The blazer doesnt use the silly thing which is unfortunate cuz it would make things a lot easier for me to run a quick test. The following is from my post in THE DEUCE section of the board (sorry fellas, never noticed we had an electrical section)...
