Making a light bulb for fuse block.

Get a old bulb with wires coming off of it and put a aligator clip on both wires then hook it to the 2 ends of the fuse holder in the truck fuse block.
If you have head lights on and you have added other lights to the circuit it maybe overloading the switch. 30 year old wiring with a high load could have shorten the life of the switch.
