M1010 interior switches

[Oerthedge21]

Now that I've got my relay panel in and hooked up with help from some members here, I've slowly been trying to figure out the lights and whatnot, and have run into my next issue. The two switches in the box, labeled in the TMs simply as 3 way switches, are unlabeled in my truck. PO had painted everything inside truck, including the label plates above the switches. Anyone here have a truck that still has the labels printed? Also, is there a way to turn off the focus lights in the back? Mine stay on unless I disconnect the B/O relay or switch the service light switch to B/O. Isn't one of those switches in the box supposed to turn them off? Thinking I may need to pull the interior skins out again to check wires, would be a good chance to reseal the cieling and maybe reinsulate the box too.

The focus lights in all the M1010's I seen had switches on each light. On the back side.

The toggle switches on the walls at the back and front are for the overhead center light only, the TAG SAYS "DOME LIGHT". One is on the right wall just inside the back doors, the other is center above the passage door between the front and rear compartment. The focus lights are like CUCV's says is a tiny on off switch on the top of each light. It's a slide switch! All this is in the TM 9-2320-280-10 Operator Manual. If you haven't downloaded the TM ya should do that next and enjoy some reading time. As I used to teach drivers, everything you need to know about operation of a vehicle is in the 10 Manual

Yeah pretty disappointed in myself for missing that switch on the focus lights. And I wasn't aware there was a manual that had all that kinda stuff in it, I have a big printed TM for the cucvs and I though get that's all there was for them, my bad for asking such a dumb question then I'll have to find that one and give it a read

Please dont misunderstand. Just helping you know what's out there. All the TMs are on this site as downloads for free plus other sites. As we always said in the Military, there is NEVER a dumb question. If I or most people where will do our best to help each other in anyway we can. You'll do the same I'm sure.

I have a complete and basically and un-molested M1010, just added a few campinge items to make like on the road easier. So ask away without fear! Oh and just a small point no matter how much of and an expert we all are, we all miss stuff from time time, so no wories!
