That worked great, thanks. The textures are working and so are the lights. What lines would I have to take out of that code to make that switch work for only the NAV lights? If it's comlicated and involves writing something else, don't worry about it, you've already helped a lot.

I'm very glad that it worked. Here is the situation of how this all functions: The left-most light switch in the stock 737 VC is hardwired to toggle a type-9 light. The XML code that I wrote, turns on a type-3 light whenever it detects that a type-9 light has been turned on, and turns it off the same way. The Nav light that is embedded in the Posky model is hardwired to be a type-3 light. You can not change the light type of the VC switch nor the light type of the Nav light in the model. Since we got the Nav light to go on with the switch in the VC we know the code is OK so we should not modify that.

However, I noticed in one of you previous posts that there were several type-3 lights defined in the [lights] section of your "aircraft.cfg" file that will also illuminate when the Nav lights are toggled. Namely:

light.4 = 3,

Thanks so much. That is exactly what I wanted to do.
