today i tried to start the car....nothing i checked the switch...harness where the nuetral safety switch runs to....so i found the firewall plug was not contacting the purple wire....so I was wondering if this is the case with my blue wire to the turn signal? ill check today after work and see.

Sorry i forgot..........it is a 67 standard camaro with a flloor shift......i went to the junkyard and found a 67-68 chevy truck........but it had two blue and two light blue wires....i checked the switch and i feel it is ok. i have the colors coresponding connected........at switch the dk blue flashes with a test light. but at the light itself it wont flash..park lamp turns on at half pull....with headlights on they wont be on....normal. the driver park is very bright.......flashes normal when nothing is on.....but the pass. is dim and doesnt flash....... rear lamps flash with switch and hazards.......brake lights work too. i checked my grounds to the park lamps and the passenger headlight ground is not grounded yet........thank you and my apologies once again.

hello...i cant find any diagrams on what color wires and how many are supposed to come down to the horseshoe plug..........i have a chassis manual that indicates the ones from the plug to the harness.......when i refered to my wireing diagram it stated that it only showed wires pertinent to the harness....any help is gratefully welcomed since i want to get this done this weekend to take to the chp for inspection, get a vin tag, and register this rig.....also my driver side blinker works except when my headlights are on.....and is much brighter than the pass side and both bulbs are from the same pack.....oh and my hazzards dont work...also installed two new flashers.

There is bliss in ignorance....i have more fun looking at cars i know a little about (VW's) rather than ones i do(Camaros).....but id rather own a Camaro any day of the week.....although i still check out vw's daily on a classified website.................they are laidback to drive but they to have a crazy following..........i try not to get to upset at the "stupid" restos(chevy).....but my girl reminds me to not be such an A**hole and it is their car, and my kids remind me of the fun of it when my four year old says "that's cool !"....and my 17 month old revs in a "vroom vroom !"
