Hooking up light to the lighting coil????
Any of you old guys remember the old saying about Lucas Electrical?
Lucas Electrical = "The Prince of Darkness"
Back in 1972 I owned a 1963 Triumph Spitfire. Sporty little car and fun too drive, but the electrical? OH BOY!! I can remember driving down the So Cal Freeways at night and having the headlights and taillights go off , then come back- on more than once.

During my two decades as an aircraft electrician, we'd get "gripes" about something smoking, maybe the autopilot amplifier, or the synchrophaser. If the flight engineer was a dick, we'd sign off the discrepancy with "put smoke back in amplifier," and the like.
When I couldn't source an unobtainium AP 4600 6VDC Head Lamp housing for my Powell, I made a switch box for the side of the frame and chromed it. Ended up with so much wire, I elected to set up a small terminal block, so the harness was removable with the switch box as a unit. I mean...this stuff is so much more simple than a 42 pin rack connecter with soldered on shielded wiring. I also use cable covers that work like Chinese finger traps. Makes the installation clean and slick. No wires poking out from the nether regions.
ASH Receiver: Our birds had those too. Same as in my garage. Somewhere I have a box full of the Tec connectors and pins.
