IH 2504 headlight switch question

I know this is probably a dumb question but I replaced the bogus headlight switch with a factory original type. It has 5 terminals on the back: Bat (battery), Inst (instrument lamps), HL (headlamps), and RL and TL. What are the RL and TL terminals?

Rear lamp and Tail lamp? What's the difference?

Thanks much,

Jim

Rear lamp should be a light to illuminate behind you for field work and tail lamp should be a red light for road travel (unless I got them backwards :oops: ).

Originally, the sealed beam lamp for the rear light was red on the backside. There was a small, clear miniature lamp that acted as a taillight and illuminated through the backside of the sealed beam to give a red taillight for road travel.
