Some times the simplest things can and will kick your tail !!
I have never ever wired a car I thought it was way over my head ..
KoalaT sent me his wiring diagram and slowly but surly one circuit at a time got the start run just fine ..got the headlights & Tail lights,parking lights working with out a hitch,,Started on the Turn signal and brake lights .Ran all the wiring hooked up the brake light switch and checked to see if they work,,
Hit the brake peddle and only had the left brake light ??? Now remember I have absolutely no wiring experience yeah I can trace a short thats about it ,,Soooo here I go Tracing all my connection's double checked everything
I could think of and 2 hours went by and still only one brake light ! Well crap !!
I musta got a bad Turn signal switch and while standing there rubbing my head I see what was to be the problem ,, Seems if you dont have any other wires hooked other than the brake lights and yeah some where I had hit the turn signal switch for a right hand turn put it back in the neutral position and what do you know BOTH brake lights now work:doh::lol::laff::sorry:,,, So I guess the moral of this is some times you just need to step back take a breath and look at it from a different perspective ..
So this is where KoalaT get's a BIG PAT ON THE BACK and an ATABOY !!
IF I can do this I know anyone else can ,,
