Re: 86 Comanche X - no taillights
But he's got working rear turn and reversing signals. Do they use the
same ground tag as the taillights?
Does the taillight circuit come off the same part of the light switch as
the front parking lights, or is it a seperate part of the switch?

Re: 86 Comanche X - no taillights - problem found
When I jiggle the wiring harness in front of the aforementioned connector,
the lights work. Must be a busted wire or other problem with the connector.
Thanks everyone.
