Brake Lights

["Anthony Bianchini" <ABianchini@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I too experienced the exact same situation with my 66 LeBaron, except my
circumstances were a little more extreme-massive corrosion in the bulb
sockets. This was due to the car being submerged for two hours, after a
through cleaning they function again. I would try cleaning your 67s
sockets out coupled with cleaning or replacing your bulbs first; then
trouble shoot more in depth if the problem persists.

I had similar symptoms once with my '70.  I tried everything.  I was
complaining about it at a party, worried that I wouldn't pass my next
brake
inspection.  A fellow there who turned out to be a very experienced
mechanic
went out to the car, pulled the bulbs and wiped out the sockets
brisquely
with his handcerchief.  Then he rubbed the light posts and put it all
back
together.  Problem solved.  It was a bad ground.
