Headlight Switch Problems/Fuse Panel
1986 Ford Ranger Sing. Cab 2.0 liter Carb.
I recently had the problem with all my lights on this 1986 Ford Ranger I bought recently not working. It came to be some of the fuse were blown, ground wasn't good in one of the pigtail sockets, and etc. I had fixed all of this, except my left blinker blinks real fasts, but real dim. The right side works great as can be. Well since all the electrical is tied into everything in these vehicles, it could be a numerous amount of things, but it lead back to the head light switch wasn't working properly. Instead of just having 2 notches, it has 3, or it felt like it. You had to have it in the right place for lights to come on. So I bought a new headlight switch and went to replace it. After replacing it, I don't know what happened. The left blinker did the same thing, but I am not worried about that now. Now the first notch in the headlight switch wont turn on the running lights, but when you press the brake, all of the running lights and brake lights come on. Like the running lights are hooked to the same brake, but I didn't change anything except for just snap on a new headlight switch. If someone could help me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
