- Here's the thing. I'm driving along looking at good instrument readings. Then I either step on the brakes or use the turn signal. First, neither brake lights or turn signals function; Second, the thr

- Check your wiring at the second fuse from the bottom on the fuse block. Assuming all is original this is the fuse that protects the circuit for the brake lights, turn signals, tach and gages. There

- On a 72 the stop-lamp switch is wired directly back to the fuse-block i.e. it does not share any wiring with any other green circuit, therefore the bad connection must be at the fuse-block or the whi

- Jay: Sounds like others feel it is a fuse. That is easier to check. The voltage stabilizer in mounted inside the firewall on the driver's side high above your left leg. It is rectangular in shape. Li

- Frank, he said all the instruments failed. The voltage stabilizer only feeds two of them. So, I'd say the prob is before it. Cheers, CR

- Also check the fuseblock itself - the rivet connections tend to show poor contact when having had a long service life. It's pricy, but it is worthwile to check - replace! Cheers, Hans '71 BGT Jay, Ch

- Or solder the joints. I've never done it on the B fuse block, but have done it to other riveted terminal blocks if they will handle the heat. I've also restaked them which quite ofted will re-establi
