I've got an HJ47. It was owned by a farmer before and he didn't care what worked as long as the thing ran and could haul and hold equipment, so I've got a few issues to resolve. One is my rear lights. The hazards work, the blinkers work, one brake light works. No lights turn on when I turn on my headlights. So I'm trying to figure out why the other brake light doesn't work and why the tail lights don't go on when I turn on my headlights.
I went under, looked at the connections at the rear, took them apart, and see nothing amiss on the side the brake light works but a red wire has apparently become disconnected on the other (is that the brake light?). Here are some pics.
These are the connections where everything except the tail light part works.
What is the grease about and what are the two metal tips for? They were covered by a piece of tape. I recovered them after putting more grease and cleaning it up.
This is the one with the red wire disconnected. Other wires are brown, black and white on both tail light fixtures. Not sure what the black wire going into that black box is about.
