1971 Mach1 Brake light problems, PLZ HELP!
I own a 1971 Mach1 and the driver side tail lights are giving me problems ATM. Currently, when the lights are off the 4 way flashers will work, but the blinker and brake light will not work on the driver side. When i turn the lights on, they light up dimly like they should, but again they dont get brighter when i press on the brakes or turn the blinkers on. But they do work with the 4 ways. The passenger side lights work fine in every condition. Ive replaced the bulbs and the sockets on the driver side, but that didnt help at all. If anyone can help me out with this problem it would be greatly appreciated. THANKS!!!!

If you have a test light or multimeter, Pull the bulb out of the socket, have somebody press the brake pedal and check for power to the socket. If its good power then you need to look at the ground for the light, no power then you need to trace back in the wire and find the break in it.
