Bill,

I followed your advice and it came out of the car ok, whew. Of course the switch looks fine, but who knows. Cleaning it with DeOxit failed to change anything. When the battery was charged externally, The wagon fired up readily, but nothing had changed with the switch. Lights still on, and I think that it keeps the battery from charging. I'll go out and try to check that asap.

Thank you for your help,

Mike

PS: I love this old car
