« on: June 17, 2012, 07:42:49 AM »
I have no headlight.Brake light works with foot brake,was on and brake now only brake.Front turn signals stay on rear ones only work when using turn sigs.The alarm works and the turn signal light works.The wiring harness was in perfect shape,no broken wires.checked fuses.everytime i blink i only see colored wires.i will put up some pictures later,just needed to walk away for now.Any thing i might have missed?

Yes, a better description. I'm sorry but the info given doesn't help much.
'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Draw and drawer. Could care less/couldn't care less. Bought/brought FFS.

I would check your fuses again by replacing them with known working ones. They may look fine but can be burnt out in a hard to see way.

You found a problem. Clean that down to bear metal to make a good contact. Also do the ground at the right rear engine mount.
