electrical problem

[LarryK 87]

87 cpe right side rear brake lights( and directional on same side) are out, tail lamps work fine on both sides, have installed all new bulbs, and the grounds are intact ( verified by testing ground on left side, and same ground point for right side). what i need is someone with the helms( or equiv)electrical supplement manual. my manual is unavailable to me for the next month or so.

Ken I found your problem....IT was that RED wire there........

 

[LarryK 87]

thanks ken... i needed that
i dont feel anywhere near as bad now....

and thanks Vig, it is in the dark green wire circuit ( somewhere), no 12v present on the socket end for brake, turn or hazard, every thing else appears live. Possibly a break in the column area, will test that this afternoon.

why?

It was a valuable coin! :L

Seriously, it makes it a whole lot easier for me to get in there and straighten out the mess that others before me started, various installer's messes that I instigated by purchasing their products, and the mess I'm gonna make when I begin converting the dash to analog gauges next week.

Or maybe I simply enjoy giving myself headaches!

Vigman:
Found it, it was the connector as it exits the column area, just a weak connection, brake lights and directionals are back and operating. Much appreciated
