Lost blinkers on right side and brake lights

[jbearden]

It started with just the right front not working.Now it is the entire right side without blinkers and no brake lights on either side.The running lights work,but that is all.Left side is fine and works like it should.This is on a 1967 Dodge Charger.All the bulbs are brand new.Test light in front showed that I am getting power to the running light part of the socket,but not the blinker.Any help?

Had a similar issue and it was the turn signal switch, would check for wear on the contact points on the switch, or if you don't want to pull the steering wheel yet could jump them at the terminal under the column.

i had some similar problems and after a bunch of work trying to figure out what was up it turned out to be the turn signal flasher.8 bucks fixed it all.

almost exact issue with my car a few months ago, turned out one of the wire harnesses at the steering column apparently had a poor connection...I traced/tested the wiring all the way up there from the bulb socket, unplugged the harness to check for continuity...when i plugged it back in, everything suddenly started working as it should lol

X2 on both of those items to check and also see links for the wiring diagram for your car. Good luck

Tahnks for all the info so far guys.I'm rounding up some more tools right now to pull the steering wheel and so on.I'll let you know how it goes in a few.

Ok,so just by wiggling the harness under the column I got rear blinkers on the right side again.Still nothing on the front right.Still no brake lights.I am getting a constant power from the pink tracer wire to the brake light switch.nothing at all from the white wire.Just got the steering wheel off and the contacts look ok.I'll spray it down with some electrical cleaner anyway.

Check all your grounds.

Unplug/re-plug all the harness connectors from the column back to the rear lights...clean them if you see obvious signs of corrosion/rust...and as already said, check all the grounds

Thanks Someotherguy.I just did all of that before I read that.The forward light harness was pretty nasty looking so I hosed it down with some electrical cleaner.I made sure to clean everything up real well and now I have a right front blinker.Now to get my brake lights working again.Thanks for the help everyone.
