light switch

Hello NF people
I have recently scored a NF cabinerie (as a few bits show a
residue of baked dark blue paint ) that is upgraded with a
dynastart and aprilia indicators. Unfortunately the loom is in
poor condition and I am rewiring front to rear and adding relays
as required.
The wiring is a mix of civilian and military colours and the
indicators are easy enough
I have rebuilt the main switch and fitting a relay next to it
under the dash along with a horn relay under the tank.
Could some one please explain the functions of the CEV
melt-o-matic light switch.
I have been most fortunate to get hold of a S/H switch in good
condition to replace the distorted non functioning one and the
wiring was patched, non standard and melted.
the horn is obvious ,
I guess the top rocker is parking/town light but I am not
familiar with the functions of the bottom rocker and the circuit
diagrams are not showing the power feed to the switch. the
switch has 3 positions and 4 poles and the centre is also
wired????? any illumination would be much appreciated :D
I have built a loom from scratch for my T3 so I am not generally
troubled about wiring except for this switch
Once this is sorted and the relays done along with the QH
headlight I should be able to take it out for a shake down ride.
Boy am I looking forward to that day ;D ;D ;D

Thanks Ric, it does and my old switch had been modified so much
it didn't operate in that manner and the way it is wired is
different so..... I am still seeking the wiring connection
details if anyone has easy access to the back of their switch
please. just the connections of the 4 poles on the bottom rocker
and if the rocker pivot is connected to anything.
My new S/H switch has a wire attached to every pole except the
connecter to the upper rocker

I have a spare lurking in the garage somewhere, although I'm not
sure how findable it will be.
I'll try and take a look at the weekend.

After converting my headlamp to 60W H4 bulbs my headlamp switch
started to play up so I fitted a double relay into the headlamp
shell to take the current away from the switch. It's been
reliable ever since.
The tail light has 3 x 19 led lamps in it = 57 LEDs, so quite
bright and saves a bit of juice for the front shiner.

The spare switch has not materialised... ??? I suspect it's in a
cabinet behind some boxes of things that might come in useful
sometime...
In the meantime, I opened up the one on the bike, and the rear
is wired like this:

Looks like there's quite a few spare terminals on there. Mine
has lights on, park, full, main/dip and horn.
Not sure if that's any help.
