Howdy Guys,
I'm fixing up my "get 'er done cheap as possible" car to replace the Ranchero when I take it down for paint, interior, OZ250 head, etc. Its a 63 Futura 2dr sedan, neat car. Anyhow, it has no rear lights at all at the moment. The tail lights work sometimes and the turn signal switch ain't working right and needs to be dead center and causes only 1 brake light to be on (when the brakes do work). Running lights don't work but head lights do. It bothers me the brake lights sometimes work.
I just got done having the battery in the trunk testing all the wiring. Brake lights and turn signals work. The ground works. Everything rear side is good. What would cause no lights to work in the rear when actuated from the cab? The pressure switch is new, and the no running lights baffels me most. The turn signals and brake lights are connected, right? If the turn signal switch was bad, would that make sense that stuff sometimes works but almost never works? Any ideas??
This car is in the process to become street legal. I'm gonna have to drive it 50 miles round trip to the DOT office for an inspection. Gotta have all this working to make it down.
Thanks,
Ryan
