southpaw - challenged tail light
Ok. So we bought a 69 Tradewind that has needed a lot of love and I am now having some great trouble with the left tail light. Right indicator and brake lights are working fine. I pulled out the unit on the left side and connected a known working bulb in a brand new socket to make sure the socket connections were not the issue. No light. I put a voltmeter to the hot wire and the chassis ground connection for that light and get oscillating 1-12 volts when the blinker is on (makes sense, right?) Bulb/connections -check, voltage-check. What the heck is wrong? Please help. I am scheduled to leave on our maiden voyage this Saturday morning and am losing what hair I have left over this. Thanks!
