It should be as simple as hooking the wires with the lines together and the smooth wires together to complete the parallel circuit. Unfortunaley, that doesn't work. I've figured out which wires go to the switch in the back and I can get them working, but the second wire going to the center light shows that it is hot, instead of being a ground. I'll try to figure it out this weekend. It would be simple if I could see behind the walls and see what they did.

Does anyone have their rear switches, over the door, that are set up as "up" for "off" and "down" for "on"? That is the way that mine appear to be and if I want to change them, I will need to notch the curved plastic interior in order to allow it to turn 180 degrees.

That's my recollection the way my (former) 67 C-10 worked.

That is the way mine was. I swapped the switches so that the porch light switch is on the side of the porch light. Now, the switch on the camper's left side controls the center light.

For some reason light switches etc in Britain (I can't remember about the rest of Europe, but they might be the same) are configured as down = on and up = off - i.e. the opposite of the US / Canada. This always struck me as being the wrong way around from a failsafe point of view - if you knock a switch you are more likely to knock it down and therefore in Britain ON.

I have a 1968 C11 and my center light is a short tube flourescent is that what the factory used ? Is it 12v or 110 ? It and the outside porch light are the only two that I haven't gotten to work yet.
My center, factory light had 4 incadesent bulbs, one for low and 3 more for high. I still haven't figured out why my ground wire, for the center light, has power to it. Obviously, something is wrong.

I'm sure that they changed them over the years, and maybe even within the same year.
I am replacing it with an LED, as soon as I figure out all the wiring issues.
