Thanks 7D Cuda,  will try that tonight, Danny

Bypassed the turn sginal switch like 7dcuda suggested and he was right.  I had brake lights when I bypassed the turn signal switch.  Does anyone know who sells these?  I also have an issue with my headlights.  They worked to begin with but were dim.  Now they will not work at all.  The switch seems to be okay since the park and marker lights work.  Trying to get this straightened out one problem at a time.  Some issues were the grounds due to the car being taken apart and painted.  Thanks, Danny

Start with the dimmer switch. Make sure you're getting an output there.

Dixiedog...Just because the parking lights work doesnt mean the headlight switch still isnt possibly bad.  The headlight electrical portion of the switch uses a different contact inside the switch than what the parking lites use. 

Another thing to check is the headlight bright/dim switch.  Power to the headlights goes thru this switch.  So if right now the switch is say in the dim position, if the contacts in the switch for the dim position are bad, you wont have headlights.  Change the position of the switch to exercise the other set of contacts in the switch and see if you then have headlights.  If you do, then obviously the bright/dim switch is bad.  If thats the case you might wanna try switching the bright/dim switch back and forth real fast numerous times to see if the contacts will start working.   Hope this helps as well.

the turn signal switch is made by Standard , the part # is TW7 , it generally sells for around $40
Year One & Mopar sell the same part for over 3 times that . Maybe Rock auto carries it , I used to by them & ship them to members here but I am no longer in Canada  so getting them will be difficult for me now !
