If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

Big Dog, What's the "F" connection? Also is the ammeter connection to the +or- post?

F is to the field terminal on the generator. Connect to the ammeter + so the draw from the lights will travel through the ammeter.

Big Dog, mine has an alternator. So where do I connect the "F" terminal to?

leave it disconnected. That was the connection to the field winding on the generator that controlled the charge rate by either grounding the field directly or through a resistor. You will not be using that function of the switch with your charging system.
