Wiring Problems Round 2

I have a 62 M37 that I've been trying to get the stoplights to work. The 3 lever switch has been replaced and the stop light switch at the master cylinder and I know these can be bad but the other light work ok when I flip the switches.

My problem is with the area of the wiring harness that I guess was put into the harness for the turn signal relay, which I don't have. I can used a jumper and can get the stoplights to light up from the right inner fender and at the wires at the turn signal harness location. At this location I have 22B, 22-460, 22-461, 22,22 and two other wire that has no tags on then. I have a wiring diagram for the turn signal set up and to start I have traced the 75 stop light feed to the brake switch, which has power. The wiring shows 75 A stop light switch going back to the 3 lever switch then 22B service stop coming out and going to the turn signal harness and then there 22-460 and 22-461 should feed back to the stoplights but when I hook then together the stoplights don't work when you push the pedal down.

I was wonder if I need to put in the turn signal system or does anyone have any ideals

Have you checked the pressure switch to make sure it's working correctly ? If it is bad even new wiring won't help. Just because it has power to it doesn't mean it works.




SEMPER FI !!

YES, if it is a updated wiring harness for turn signals, the brake light power wire from the brake light switch goes though the turn signal controller because the brake light is also the turn signal..

If you don't have a turn signal switch-use 22-B to 22-460 & 22-461. That should make the stop lights work ---if the stop switch is good and the three lever light switch is good.
