Need some help!!!!!

I had to take the T apart (another story) but now when the headlights are on the turn signals don't work. When you turn them off the turn signals work. We have checked the grounds and it worked before we pulled the body. Any ideas?

Did you make your wiring harness, or did you buy one ? That would give us some idea on where to start. Turn signals can be done different ways.

just a guess but i would check the hot wire going into you signal switch.

Thanks guys after working for 6 hours or so and checking most anything I could think of, I caled in some local help. And after a few more hours he said he had heard that some of the bulb sockets could let you put the 1157 bulb in backward, guess what we checked and changed them and all is fine.

That's nuts! a little QC from the MFG of the sockets and this would have never happened... however this is one of the reasons when it comes to lights, I always check sockets with a multimeter first to see if I'm getting power then, then work backwards from there.

Glad you found it!
