It’s not the bulbs. I am pulling the wiring apart now to see if it is a easy fix or do I just do a total rebuild.

I guess I will end up ripping it all out and doing the restore with my Chevy motor and trans. Was gonna try to keep it all AMC but if I have to tear very deep into it might as well make it right and put a motor that makes cheap power.

The turn signals, brakes and flasher use the same wires to the rear so the problem is up front, column, signal switch would be a start.
The rear running lights are a separate wire and bulb filament so the problem can be anywhere in this circuit. Check for power at the light switch and work back from there. I have had 2 rear running light failures in the rear harness connector just up behind the dash on the drivers side, so check this connector both sides for power.

Well I have
head lights
Front and rear flashers
Brake lights.
Can’t get any turn signals or rear running lights.


If anyone has a idea what to check for rear running lights or any turn signals.
