Hello all. Im new to the forums here. This is my first Ford truck and so far i love the truck! its an awesome machine. Anyways i have a 1978 F150 custom 2WD standard cab truck.
when i bought the truck i picked it up for 600$ with a solid running 351m and minimal rust. well i drove it the night i got it and no dash lights? hmmm. also no brake lights? hmmm and turn signals were only in the front.
so heres my problem now. got the front blinkers working, and got one brake light and taillight working. But NOW heres the funky part. when i turn my headlights on the front turn signals light up, and the one rear taillight but when i turn the signals on NOTHING. flasher clicks and indicators in the dash flash. but no signals. BUT turn lights off the turn signals work good???
also why no dash lights? and when i turn the lights on the passenger side turn signal indicator in the dash stays lit??
I have cut and soldered on new bulb sockets on the taillights but only the drivers side works? and how come when my lights are on, brake lights and signals dont work?
NO blown fuses, tried replacing the flasher and that didnt help. bad headlight switch? any ideas?
