 kinda like the old funky switches and will order some relays. With a
relay the current draw goes way down and the switch should last
longer. My switch is on the left side and has what appears to be a
turn signal switch (3 position) a horn button, and a dipper switch.
If your Ambo is the same as mine the bottom (what you call the turn signal
switch) is the lights on/off/park switch, the middle is of course the horn
and the top is the high/low beam. Mine ('71) was fitted with signals after
the fact. But whoever did used the cool matching right-hand switch and Lucas
blinkers in the front and the Wixom bag lights for the back. I took the bags,
front blinkers and switch off (and no you can't have them:-) ) but there is a
flasher pop-rivetted to the inside of the headlight shell. If I remember
tomorrow I will pull the rim off and tell you the specs if I can tell.
