Hi. >>Hoping someone can help me save some time. I'm testing my new wiring job.

Symptom: No rear lights. No turn signals.

Front low/high beam, markers, and hazzards do work.

On "Power Side" of wiring harness I only wired two power (Red) and the starter solenoid wire (Purple). The purple feeds a ford style solenoid. The two Red wires are tied into the solenoid output/cut-off switch.

Dash is out of the car. >>Unplugged with exception of headlight switch. Power (switched and unswitched) available at all appropriate points on fuse block. >>No blown fuses.

I'm assuming I have an open somewhere. Considering I'm contemplating a custom dash, I could use some help in tracing this out.

Thanks!

John

I may have missed it but it would help to know the year and model. If it is say a 70 GS I rember a separate ground wire and lug that attaches in the rear. Failure to do this would perhaps give this Sx.

Hi Jim,

Oops. I thought everyone here had a '70 GS>> :grin:

Yes, that is what it is.

Thanks!
