Re: Brake Lights 76'
Use a 12 volt test light and check for power to the new socket. Then use an ohm meter and check the ground for the light. On this age vehicle check the plug and use brake clean and make sure your getting power to this point. You have to keep going closer to the source until you have power.

Re: Brake Lights 76'
Oh I should also note that before the stop light stopped working, I could sometimes get to to go on if i turned the turn signal on randomly, could my turn signal knob cause my brake light to stop working?

Re: Brake Lights 76'
If the turn signal on that side works, and the brake lamp doesn't (same filament and circuit) start looking at the turn signal switch and its wiring.
