Okay. I am working my way thru all the electrical connections putting this 72 back together. I have the signal lights, headlights, brake lights working but I can't get the tail lights to go on with the head lights. I have two remaining wires on each tail light that I have not connected. one is the backup lights the other the markers for night time. I have not be able to get either of the two working yet. The front marker lights work when the head lights are on. Is there a common place to look for discontinuity for the rear tail lights?
I took her out for a short 1 mile drive. barely got into 4th gear. she is really spunky. I like the power. My county roads are still iced up and I can't really put my foot in it yet. J |
