    Electrical issue (multiple posts merged)

     



    I own a 62 ford thunderbird . The problem I have been having is when I pushed down on the dimmer switch I only get the high beam meaning all four lights our on. When I engage the switch again nothing. This is what I have done so far. I jumped the dimmer switch Switch is good even purchased to new switches upon knowing that I could return them Still the same problem no low beam. I have access to the wiring harness but checking ohms with the red and black wire would be useless since all four lights do come on. I checked the plug inside of the firewall with the back wires still attached to the back of the plug and performed a ohms test on the plug now one side is the hot side which I have power to that. The other two sides show zero ohms on one side and the other shows 0.14 ohms. Would this indicate to someone out there that had the same problem or a electrical indivdual with knowledge of this situation thatsit is a bad plug. Thank You. I no electrical problems can be the worst. Larry

    I have a 62 ford thunderbird. I have interior lights also outside headlights that come on. What I dont have is the back brake lights. If I just engage the the parking brakes in the front only nothing but the turn signals will come on through the parking lights in the front and the rear lights will have the lights on also Ill have turn signals in the rear also.THe problem is no front parking lights or rear braking lights will come on when I push down on the brake pedal. I replaced the stop brake light also. Who is my guru out there. Thanks Larry

    I own a 62 thunderbird. I have front headlight on but no parking lights. I have parking lights for the back and turn signal for the back. But no brake lights or parking lights to the front. I replaced the brake stoplight but still the same results. Can anyone help with a suggestion. Thanks Larry
