All Rear Lights Stopped Working.....

Hi There -

I have a new problem with my '87 Sport Coupe.

Last week, I noticed that the turn signals were not working at the back: when I switch them on, the brake lights flash VERY dimly, but nothing from the turn signals!

The stop lamps, rear lamps and reverse lamps don't work either.

Has anyone seen this before? I removed the rear clusters and checked them out, everything seems OK at the back....

Thanks
Bruce

Follow the ground wire(s), make sure they're clean and tight where they bolt to the body.

Also, check the "Fisher body" plug up under the dash near the driver's left foot.
