Hi mud,
I've been working on my '73 for about a year now. We got it running and driving, and now the next step is to sort out lights/signals/brake lights. the rear harness back near the frame crossmember had been severed, so I'm trying to figure some stuff out. I got the headlights to work, turn signals to turn on in front/rear, but not blinking. I also traced down the red wires running towards the back that have power when headlights are on, so I assume those are the running lights.
the question is, can I simply run the red wires to each respective tail light for a running light, or do I need an associated green wire to be a companion there? And how can I get the turn signals to flash? I am obviously not hooking up a green wire correctly?
Sorry, I have stared at the wiring diagram and it's literally Greek to me.
thanks!
Joel
