I'm having two electrical issues with my 70.
Issue 1: The driver's side brake light does not come on when the brakes are applied. The passenger's side light comes on when the brakes are applied, but not the driver's side. I tried a fresh bulb with no luck. I also switched the bulb from the pass side to the driver's side that I know worked, and still no brake light. When you turn the headlights on, you get brake lights on both sides. Some of the wires on the rear harness I soldered back together due to them being cut by the PO. It is possible that that is the culprit, so in the morning (when I have someone who can help press the brake pedal) I'm going to run a test light before the solder point to see if there is power coming. Is there anything else that could be the culprit though?
Issue 2: The turn signals will not stay on. I can click the turn signal lever one way or the other and it will not stay in place. I also can only get the emergency flashers to flash when the headlights are off. I replaced both flashers with new ones that I assume are working just fine (why else would the flasher's work when the headlights were off?). Bad turn signal cam/switch?
