    Headlights on 1951 Ferguson TO-20

    What a great group of people on this Forum! Thank you to everyone for their help. I found two problems. One was a loose wire in one of the headlight housing and the second, which was most likely the problem, was a cut in the wire exposing a couple of strands that were hitting the hood. Fixed...

    Headlights on 1951 Ferguson TO-20

    Headlights on 1951 Ferguson TO-20

    I have installed headlights on a Ferguson TO-20. It is an original 6V system. I ordered a new pull switch that is fused with 2 wires. The new headlamps have a single wire on them. I wired the light switch by picking up the power from the ignition switch when it is in the on position. I get 6v to...
