Sometimes I pretend to be normal
Im almost done with wiring my car and Im stuck on the headlight switch to start. As I look at my service manual, I think I have all but one termination point figured out. I just want to tell you what I plan on terminating to what points.
Terminal H-Goes down to the dimmer switch on the floor to give power to headlights
Terminal R- Goes to the front and rear parking lights
Terminal B1- is the main power for the headlights
Terminal B2- I have no idea what goes on this one??? Please let me know
Terminal D- Goes to the Dome light
The other terminal that goes to the rheostat is for the gauge lights

Glove box light, I assume I just need to get a power wire to the light and it grounds itself out?
Key light, is this light on 100% of the time the headlights are on or does this shut off originally with the time delay relay?
Map Light Switch, I tried to test mine to see if it was good, but not quite understanding how it works. I tried to do a continuity test on it so see if I flipped the switch it made contact, but it didnt. Should it? If not how do I wire this switch in? I could not find anything on this in my manuals.
Ok last question is the ignition.
I'm running a EZ Harness and I've seen a few threads that say wires need to get connected together and other switched, although Im running HEI in my car so I dont have the ballast resistor or any of that stuff. Im not sure if I still have to switch my wires or just wire it like EZ says. So here is how EZ says I should wire it, let me know if I should wire it this way or change it up.
Ignition Power Red to Column Red (power)
Ignition Pink to Column Brown (ignition 2)
Ignition Acc Orange to Column Blue (ignition 1)
Ignition Acc Brown to Column Black (ignition acc)
Ignition Start Purple to Column Yellow (start)
I studied the schematics for a long time tonight to try to find the answers to my questions, but I think I was starting to over think how some of this should work so I just want to double check. Thanks so much in advance.
