When the vacuum is high, the switch connects the A solenoid directly to the dropping resistor, bypassing the 670 Ohm resistor.

If it is connected so that the dropping resistor is open circuited when it operates is will bring on the light.

That's how I understand it to work, But it seems mine works opposite of that. It has the high OHMs when there is vacuum and low OHMS without vacuum. WTF
