light switch and wirng on a 210

Been redoing the light switch wires on the 210 for the fender lights and pulling my hair out.I always thought the way they worked was,
one click turns on gage light and back work light and inside fender lights,
two clicks turns on both sets of fender lights,
third click just turns on hazard lights and both fender lights stay on.
Can any one confirm this,
I can get back light on and inside fender lights and flasher lights,
I don't seem to be able to get both fender lights with the second click of the switch,it's almost like there isn't enough spades on the light switch which I doubt is the issue and I just don't have wires on correct spades.
I can't read the HL and RL and TL on the back of the switch.

It also looks like there are 6 wires coming from the light switch and only 5 spades on the switch,so I'm assuming one spade has to have 2 wires coming off of it just dont know which one.

That helps some inj ed but here's what throws me,on the switch the first click gives me 3 hot spades,2 of them are the inst spades with the coil and one other.it looks like on the second click the only thing that happens is the coil spades get a little brighter with the test light and i have a dead spade still until the third click which makes it hot but makes one of the spades dead that the first click made hot.looking at the diagram it looks so easy but is very confusing to this country boy lol.So do I need a cple of double connectors on these spades.

That connector is in the wiring harness (I think) under the platform but not at the switch and I have the harness unplugged under the deck and have been checking there.
It just seems like mine was wired up to work like this,again best i remember,

First click turned on dash light and back white light and inside fender lights.
Second click turned outside fender lights on plus all the above,so all four fender lights on.

Third click only added the hazard lights.

Also on mine according to the diagram in the book pink wires and dark blue wires are fender lights.

Blue wire with white stripe is back working light,it does not have a red tail light on it.

Yellow and tan and white is hazard lights.

I'm not absolutely positive it is an O.E.M. switch by no means,so with that being said I finally got them to work like they did before to best of my knowledge.

Inside lights and back work light come on with first click.

The second click does not energize any thing other than maybe making the inside lights a smidge brighter.

The third click turned the inside lights off and outside lights on and hazard lights on.So I did some of my own wiring and got the all four fender lights on with the hazard lights and the back light still on.

I just want the fender lights on when in the field either just 2 or all four with back light with the first 2 clicks then when go to the road turn hazard lights with the third click,just my preference I reckon.

I did get them working that way finally and appreciate all the help and still might invest in a new switch later on but for now I'm done with the lights after pulling my short gray out all day.

So Thanks to all who helped.

Why would you want the flasher on in the first click of the switch when it is only needed 1o% of the time that the field lights are needed ??  Just asking  Where would you put it Freed? My 8070 goes flashers only, flashers and road lights,no flasher field lights low,no flasher field lights high. If you wanted flashers for road travel,why should you travel through the switch to get there?

Ok,so I checked the agco parts web site last night and found 2 light switches that somewhat make sense with the wiring diagram.
One of them has 6 spades on it and the other has 8 spades but it did not have the big nut on it best i could tell to hold it in the dash.
And as I mentioned a cple of times the switch I have has the coil wire on it and the HL and TL and RL but only has five spades which 2 of them with the coil work together or both at same time.
What I couldn't figure out was that best I could tell the second click on this paticular switch does absolutely nothing.

So with first click I wired it to turn on inside fender lights,dash light and back work light.

Third click I wired it to turn on all four fender lights and hazard lights and back light.

Now i did run a cple of jumper wires to get everything on with third click.

I personally don't want hazard lights with first click when just going to the field,I want work lights,then second click all 4 fender lights and back work light.
Then add hazard lights with 3 click for being on the road,again just my personal preference.

It is YOUR opinion,nothing more. I just want flashers on the road so first notch is right. Don't need a "do-gooder" trying to get me to do it their way.

Steve and Dr Allis are correct, that is the way they came from the factory. Good explanation Leadoff and I would tend to agree with your thoughts. Didn’t mean to ruffle any feathers with my opinion, its not often we are on the road but then again its not often we work at night either lol. So my opinion was really pointless.

I hooked up my switch per factory specs, but that doesn’t mean I like it lol. I’m really surprised with LED lights that the darn switch has already went bad because I added another fender flasher since it only came with 1 from the factory. Guess I will be changing those out to LED also to drop the amperage draw. As I said before, too small of gauge wiring from the factory and weak new components causes issues in these old tractors. I will get it resolved soon.
