No, they should be the same.  I use them to trouble shoot my factory 
(as far as I know) wiring.

I bought my replacement switch from Moss & I think it had the letters 
on them - but I could be wrong. I just went out to determine if I 
could see the letters but the the mass of wires behind the central 
panel blanked it.   I even looked for my old switch, but I must have 
pitched it out in a fit of organization!  :-)

I would follow Randell's advice & simply test for continuity for the 
three attachments as a function of switch position.  That will tell 
you which is for which.  If it does not work, let me know & I can 
pull mine out, snap a picture & send it to you.

That is what the list is for.  Someday you will be answering the 
questions for another newcomer.

I do not think its is finished - or even worked on - yet.  If it were 
available, I would own a copy.  Plug "Dan Masters" into Google & see 
what you can find.  If it is out there let me know , because I will 
buy a copy as well.
