This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

'70 GS Tail/Reverse/Turn Signal Light System Issues

Discussion in 'Sparky's corner' started by TABuickMike, Jul 19, 2010.

    Basically the brake, turn signal and reverse lights don't work at all (with or without the parking/headlights on). The only thing that works on the lighting system is the headlights, parking lights and interior lights. Before tearing this thing apart to try to figure it out, does anyone have any idea or tips as to what may be the issue?

    Thanks everyone!

    it sounds like all the front lights work and none of the rear work.
    bad ground in the rear harness. should be under the bumper somewhere.

    You sure you don't have your turn signal switch harness disconnected under the steering column? Maybe when you were playing with your stereo you knocked it loose?

    No turned out that the fuse had blown, so the turn signals work, but the brake lights still dont work. Turn signal switch?

    Brake light switch under the dash sometimes gets loose!

    Checked it and it wasn't getting any power, doesn't it go from the fuse block to the turning indicator switch in the column then to the brake pedal switch? So if it has no power and the turn signals now work, could it be something with the turn signal switch, or am I (hopefully) thinking wrong somewhere along the line?

    Do the hazards work? Brake lights are on a different fuse than direction signals then it's probably in the turn signal switch.

    Figured it out, it looked like at one point the guy had broke the prong for the flasher thingy in the fuse block and clipped one out from another fuse block and stuck it in here but he just twisted them together and wrapped electrical tape around it and it came loose. So we pulled the prong out and took out the 2 clipped wires and then soldered in the correct ones to the prong and hooked everything back up.
