power antenna switch wiring 65
can you help me out with the wiring for the power antenna?
at the harness I have 3 wires - red/blk/blk-white
the switch has six spade contacts. 1-6 below
the center four are jumped 2-6 and 3-5
- 2 3
1 - - 4
- 5 6
5 has a brown wire lead coming off
6 has a white wire lead coming off
1 and 4 are blank spade now
also, in looking at the chrome portion of the switch when it is mounted it just seems odd that I would push the switch down to raise the antenna and up to lower it??

I believe the 65 antenna switch only has 3 contacts power (center) up(lower) and down (upper)
PS: there's a 65 Corvette wiring diagram link in the help section near the bottom of this web page:

Yup. 3 wires. Lift switch up to raise antenna, push down to lower.

i find it hard to believe that this switch in not correct and there are only three contacts on the rear of a correct switch?
does anyone have a picture or information as to how to wire the switch?
