Ignition key switch "matrix"?

Hey all - Am having trouble with the lights on position on my '66 Dream key switch. Has quit working, but other positions seem OK. I see in older posts someone had posted a "matrix" diagram of the inner workings, but those image links seem to be gone. Can anybody help me with this? Much appreciated!...

Mine just went partly out on my 66 Dream. Had been glitchy with the tail light in ON position, a wiggle would make it connect, headlight always came on. Worked fine this morning. Now, nothing on both. Still starts and runs, but... HELP? I've been looking for photos and diagrams here, but all seem to...

Winterize?

I haven't posted here in a long time. didn't want to be a too needy newbie. In my saga since the last post, I've had it running off and on.

Thank you Nick! Advice from veterans is exactly what I'm looking for! So maybe back to my original notion of thoroughly going through the wiring then. I'm impressed you still have the original harness in. Mine's SUCH a patchwork with old cloth electrical tape everywhere, I have to say it gives me pa...

SOOOOO... Started again last night, kind of rough, took a few kicks, wouldn't hold idle at first, but after revving it and re-starting it a few times it evened out. Took it out around the neighborhood, ... and ran fine?!!? Just went out now about 24 (hot, dry) hours later, literally started first ki...

Been too busy to do a thing for the last week or so, but went out to mess with this just for the hell of it last night and it started again. I'm glad, but baffled? After acting like it had no spark, it now starts, although not as well as before, when it always started 3rd kick or less. AND it runs r...
