Here is something else, when I unplug the connector inside of kick panel turn on the left turn signal and apply break the front left still acks the same meaning it goes full bright like a break signal woulld. So nothing has changed by unpluging the connector to the rear of the car. The reason I did this was to remove the rear from the picture. It's still the same as when the rear was connected. Now what.
There's only so much left
A screwed up bulb
A screwed up front socket
Wiring melted / pinched together
Bad TS switch
I thought I posted this last night, but there were site connection problems for awhile.
There is only so much wire in that harness
It goes from the brake light switch, through a short section of harness to the TS column connector.
The wires going to the front lamps come back out the switch connector, through that short section of harness of "about a foot" (or a little more)
The front wires branch off I think right at the switch. Look at the switch connector. Doesn't it have TWO tans and TWO greens coming out of the connector?
One of each of those goes up to the dash lamps
The other two go out through the bulkhead connector.
There is no brake light power 'out in front' of the bulkhead. Thus it would seem the crossover is INSIDE the car.
Also, you can check the TS switch is / is not the problem by DISCONNECTING the TS switch
Do so and.........
apply the brake. You should get nothing anywhere. If something lights up, it's in the harness probably under the hood.
Look up the connections for the switch connector. You can jumper power into various pins and see if you get the proper result.
Look in your service manual section 8 at the wiring diagrams
Look at the connector in top drawing, notice it's pointed on one end. This tells you which end is which
With the connector UNhooked from the TS switch, and your rear harness kick panel connector UNhooked, you should have the following power:
Top wire, 18W (White) should have power when you apply the brake
4th wire down, 18R (Red) should have power from the TS flasher
5th wire down, no 18P (Pink) should have power from the hazard flasher
Hook a clip lead to a power source.
Clip it to 6th pin down, 18T (Tan) and ONLY the right front signal bulb should light, and the dash turn indicator if it works
Clip power to 7th from the top 18 LGN (Light GreeN) and ONLY the left front signal bulb and the left dash turn indicator should light
