'81 FC35 red switches???
Sorry Doug, I ran those two names together on the same line.
Castrol MerconIII is for the transmission and used for Power
Steering as well.

All of the red switches control 120 VAC from the genset or
shore power whichever is selected. Like Kerry said, most of
the battery heaters have been removed, or don't work.

Check the bulbs on the rear lights first, an ohmmeter
will work, it may be corroded sockets, notorious for
that, or, a poor ground. If push comes to shove you
can go on home without these.

Heck, I don't even know if mine work, I never back up
in the dark, or, go forward either, haha!
