I decided to do away with the separate 'farmer special' ignition and headlamp switches and replace them with the original combo switch. Based on my comparison to the schematics I'm pretty sure my '67 rover had a positive earth system at one point, but was converted to negative before I bought it.
Here's my problem. My rover started and ran like a champ before I wired in the new switch. Now with the combo switch, none of the lights work and you can activate the starter without the key. This would suck if it actually started, but it never catches which leads me believe it's not getting spark either.
Can anyone advise? I followed the schematics, but there isn't a lot of info in the book about those switches.
