Trying to get the lights squared away in the Autowire harness in my 69.
Headlights tailights and marker lights seem to be fine.
brake lights are intermittent. Sometimes I have none, sometimes both, sometimes one or the other. I’ve traced it to the connector area at the turn signal switch under the dash. I can see the intermittent nature with the test light. I’ll have power one second and the light works next no power. This is true for the LH RH turn signals front and rear, and each brake light. Twisting the connector around to activate an open if there is one doesn’t seem to have an effect. I have the same issue with the white power wire. Sometimes no lights will work and there is no power at the white wire. Sometimes the white wire is hot and some lights work but others. I’m leaning toward the turn signal switch being bad?
Turn signals don’t flash. When I have power at the connector and activate the turn signal, the corresponding wire flashes the test light so I know it’s working. I seem to remember that turn signals are finicky about complete circuits so maybe the power issue or the turn signal switch is to blame.
Any ideas?
