I have no 63s to go by, but I do have a full-color wiring diagram
for Type 2 USA Version (from August 1962) Chassis No. 971.550.
As I read it you have a T/S switch with 6 wires coming out of it.
Three of them go into a 3-way connector to split them before they
go on to other places. While getting you a copy would take some
doing, I can provide the following:
Circuit
on Switch Color Destination(s)
54Sl Black/Purple T1 connector and stop light switch
54Bl Black/Green/White Terminal S on Flasher Relay and on to
Em. Lt. Switch
VR Black/Green T1 connector and 87b on Em. Lt. Relay
and on to FR T/S
VL Black/White T connector which goes to
1) FL T/S
2) Terminal 87 on Em. Lt. Relay
HR Black/Red T connector which goes to
1) Em. Lt. Switch
2) RR Turn Signal
HL Black/Yellow T connector which goes to
1) Em. Lt. Switch
2) LR Turn Signal
Note that a T1 connector is just a way to connect 2 wires, while
a T connector connects 3 wires. These are probably all under the
dash or behind the kick panel.
What is not clear on this diagram is what the terminal numbers
are on the emergency light switch. I checked my Clymer and
Autobook diagrams and neither of them have terminal numbers on
that switch either. Since I usually deal with 67 buses, I am not
familiar with the emergency light switch on a 63. Can anyone
else with a 63 shed any *emergency* light on this switch?
Hope that much helps.
