Title: Lucas Switch vs Indian Copy (with photo)SOLVED?
Post by: Peter Gee on 22.09. 2018 20:37

I bought a  not bad quality Indian  replica Lucas headlight and the quality seems ok but the switch, wh has positions Off T H ( suggest this is a copy of a WD  Lucas as these had those combos). The lucas switch has 7 terminals, the Indian one, 6 plus a hole for some sort of Lucas type bullet connector (in copper).

I have the Lucas BSA A10 Twins wiring diag that uses Lucas pins.

Should I presume that as with the Lucas, 1 is one o clock  etc clockwise and the missing 7 is actually the copper bullet connecter?

Thanks

The connector with the nut which contacts the central rotor is 5 then anticlock, next 4 etc.
