I removed the dash switch and installed a warning light in its place.

 Glenn MG did not have the shifter switch. I had it at home and didn=E2=80=99=
t touch it.=20

It goes in one way. There is a notch in the switch and a tag in the housing t=
o prevent it from turning=20

I presume the plunger is going up when activated and down when powered off. I=
=E2=80=99m going to check that.  There are a couple of loose wires from othe=
r gauges. Maybe there is something shortening out there or elsewhere. I=E2=80=
=99ll check.=20

Thanks for the help.=20
