  Howdy,
After limited activity for 5 years due to an illness, I have finally almost completed my installation of turn signals on my 40 coupe. May of you supplied me information on how to proceed which I am very grateful for. Everything is installed & works great except for one thing. When the headlights are turned on, the left rear taillight will flash but not serve as a stoplight when the brakes are engaged.
I have reviewed all of the steps I have taken but am at a loss about where to look next, As usual, any & all comments would be sincerely appreciated. Thank you in advance!

  Make sure that the left rear taillight has a real good ground. Poor grounding can cause some strange issues with lighting.

  Thanks to you & all who helped! Front & rear signals. stop lights & emergency flashers are all working perfectly.
