Massey Ferguson 50 ignition/lights switches

I have acquired a 1961 MF50 gasser :) The lights did not work when purchased but I have changed from the original switch to a 3 prong 4 position switch. Problem: tractor starts in switch position 1; tractor runs and has lights in switch position 2; tractor dies when I turn switch to positions 3 & 4. The dial position indicator calls for position:
position 1 ignition
position 2 ignition and lights
position 3 ignition and all lights
position 4 lamps

Scratching my head..... please help. Thanks
 
Not sure what switch you have, but the original would have OFF, IGNITION, IGNITION and LIGHTS, and fourth would be LIGHTS only.
Switch needs BAT, IGN, and LIGHTS terminals. Might be the BAT hot wire is on the wrong terminal..
