                      &gt; Hi<br>
                      &gt; This happened to me too a couple of years
                      ago. Shortly after switching the<br>
                      &gt; lights on smoke was let out of the cable
                      loom. It turned out to be the red<br>
                      &gt; cable that goes from the the light switch to
                      a junction just under the fuse<br>
                      &gt; box. This is the cable that feeds the side
                      lights, aka parking lights. Upon<br>
                      &gt; investigation the only thing I could find was
                      that there seemed to be a<br>
                      &gt; shortcut in the left rear light bulb. And as
                      this circuit is not fused the<br>
                      &gt; part that carries the most current of it
                      burned. That is the piece from the<br>
                      &gt; light switch to the junction, that feeds 4
                      bulbs, while the other parts of<br>
                      &gt; this circuit only feed one or two bulbs.<br>
                      &gt; Luckily no other cables in the loom got
                      affected by this, so I just replaced<br>
                      &gt; that piece of the red cable.<br>
                      &gt;<br>

                      &gt;&gt; On a recent outing I noticed smoke
                      emanating from under the dash when<br>
                      &gt;&gt; the headlamps were switched on. My 13
                      year old son thought we were<br>
                      &gt;&gt; going up in flames and decided to walk
                      home. With the lights off no<br>
                      &gt;&gt; more smoke or burnt plastic smell
                      occurred and I easily beat my son<br>
                      &gt;&gt; home. I disconnected the what was left of
                      the two red wires, no damage<br>
                      &gt;&gt; to any other wires. The switch is the
                      original Lucas unit for a 1958<br>
                      &gt; 100-Six.<br>
                      &gt;&gt; Should I assume that it was the switch
                      that failed or should I be<br>
                      &gt;&gt; looking for something else. The harness
                      was replaced during the<br>
                      &gt;&gt; restoration but the switches were kept.<br>
