Re: [FWDLK] Lighting Issues

It could be the brake light switch and the headlight switch.  The lighting circuit includes the contacts inside the headlight switch and I had some odd behaviors due to corroded contacts (some lights, including dash lights, were not working). I was able to take the switch apart and clean/lubricate the contacts and re-assemble.  But first simply ensure all the wiring to the switches and any other connections in the harness are tight.

I have a 59 Dodge Coronet which I am having a lighting problem with:  The turn signals work, but tail lights and stop lights do not.  Since I think the turn and stop lights both work off of the same filament, and just to ensure that it's not the bulb (1157), when I saw the problem, I replaced the original bulbs.  No change.

Could it be the contact of the brake light sensor (it has the hydraulic pressure switch on the brake reservoir)?

Thanks for your thoughts....
