TURN SIGNALS, BRAKE LIGHTS, LICENSE, AND MARKER LIGHTS GONE HAYWIRE

Post by ford76460 »

My 1976 F250 just had all of the bulbs replaced. after doing so i'm having many issues, the right front turn signal does not work at all unless, the hazards are on. No park/turn light is on, the left front turn signal is just fine. While the engine/key is in the on position and the turn signal lever is up in the right turn position, all of the passenger side lights quit working, but the rear driver's side marker light and the license plate lights all flash. I didn't even know they could flash.
The only thing I recall happening before replacing all of the bulbs was there was a spark when plugging in the courtesy light under the dash next to the parking brake. this occurred because there is a smaller light bulb with a Blue cap, this was placed in the plastic housing that holds the main light bulb next to the parking brake. (anyone know what this blue capped light is?)
Also I pulled the instrument cluster and replaced the gauge lights. but could not find where to replace the bulb for the temp gauge, any diagrams or photos to help?
Prior to replacing the bulbs and creating that spark there were no issues with these lights.

I know you are new but this site is for 67-72 Bumpsides... yours is a 76. Try Fordification.net

Alternatively, go to the electrical section of the following post for links to wiring diagrams. http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/11878 ... st14955940
