I am restoring a 69 Mach; the interior is quite bare at the moment...
I have the main, engine, and rear harnesses installed. I can start the engine and when in reverse that backup lights work.
I have the ignition switch wired, but I do not have a steering column or headlight switch.
My brake lights don't work, and using a volt meter I do not seem to have power to the brake switch on the pedal. A continuity test of the brake switch indicates it is good, and the brake light bulbs are brand new.
Questions:
Shouldn't one side of the brake light switch be hot (at all times?)?
Are the brake lights on a fused circuit?
Do the brake lights get fed through the steering column harness or the headlight switch?
Any pointers appreciated.

P.S I will try to track down the wiring schematics too...
