240S light switch

I recently restored a 1999 MF. 240S. It has a Perkins 3 cylinder diesel. The lights do not work. I checked the fuses and replaced 2. I thought that was the issue but they still did not work. I bought a replacement light/horn switch and installed today but still no luck. Does anyone have any ideas? Does anyone know where I can get a schematic on the switch wiring?
 

I lost all lights on a 240. Fuse holder was bad (plastic housing with glass fuse) Replaced with another holder and had working lights again.

On my 240-S I found two mystery fuses hidden in black fuse holders under the dash, they were not on the wiring diagram. Unknown how they got there, but I replaced them and the horn started working again and something else, I forget. Check under the dash, in the area of the tach, for mystery hidden fuses. I think on the 240-S the wiring diagram is helpful hints, but no way is it accurate.
 
Thanks for the responses regarding my lighting problem. I replaced both fuse holders but to no avail I do not have lights. Since I replaced the light switch I wondered if anyone had the wiring diagram showing the correct wiring on the back of the switch. Here is what I have now:
Terminal # Wire color
56B Green 56 is a dual terminal
56A Tan
301 No wires dual terminal
57 White
58 Yellow
Center of switch terminal Brown/White stripe
30 No wires dual terminal
Any Help is appreciated.
