I'm trying to fix a few lighting problems. My brake lights are out on both sides-I'm going to look at the brake switch for this.
My taillights and turn signal are out on the right side. Basically the whole cluster is not working. Is there a good place to start in looking for the problem?
My turn signal on the left side is completely out. When I turn on the turn signal all I get is a constant light (doesn't flash on and off) on the speedo indicator but neither front/rear bulb is lit.
Thanks for your help.

The first thing to do is to go through and thoroughly clean all connections, check bulbs & fuses, then try again and see if that's put it right. Clean first, then troubleshoot if there's still a problem. The next thing is to tell us what type and year the car is. Lotsa changes from early to late, especially on flashers.

Sorry for the lack of information. It's a 63 ragtop.
Thanks
