no brake lights or turn signal

[mad accountant]

I took the instrument cluster out of my 69 Dart, repaired the broken pins on the printed boards, and reinstalled. Now I have no brake lights or turn signals. The tail lights work when the headlights are on and the emergency flashers work....on the rear only. In fact, I have no front running lights, turn signals or flashers don't work at all. Everything worked before I removed the cluster. Where should i start looking? Fuses and bulbs are all good.

This exact same thing happened to me when I replaced my brake pedal switch... Everything checked out fine...

Not sure what I did.. but I was taking my test light and checking connections under the dash etc...

Wife said hey they are working again...

I have no clue what it was but it seemed like it was in a suspension of nothingness lol then bang all was back to normal..

So try testing out all the leads under the dash in harness and fuse box.

Odd things happen with no explaintion lol

Yes, check out the harness that goes up the steering colmn to the turn signal switch. If you weren't just under the dash playing, I would have said to check the turn signal switch under the horn button first.

Good luck!

What about the ground on the steering column?
