Well, I thought I was dancin'...

Thanks for the response, 67. The stop light switch is easy enough to check but I don't think those lights are on. I didn't check the parking light sockets, though I did smack the valence panel to get the left front turn signal to blink. (Hmmm??) The car is really in amazingly good shape, just "rode hard and put up wet". As so often happens, lack of maintenance of lamp sockets and grounds and such is evident. That's why I worked over the taillights - didn't think about the parking lights 'cause they're at the other end of the car. Seems like getting that TS to blink by smacking the valence panel should have been a clue, but when I focus on something I often "can't see the forest for the trees".

Tomorrow will be a new day (well, actually later today will be a new day). It's past my bedtime.
