[6pack] Two Issues

[DAVID MASSEY]

 Here is a screen shot of the wiring to the transmission From Dan Master's handy wiring diagrams.  As you can see, there is a green wire (fused 12 volts) to the switch and a Green/Brown wire which feeds power from the switch to the lights.  The Green wire should be hot anytime the key is on.  The fuse that feeds it also feeds power to the heater fan, wipers, gauges, turn signals so if they work you are probably good.
Turn signals: are both lights not working or is it just one?  If one bulb is not lighting up the other bulb will not draw enough current to cause the flasher to flash.
On the other hand, it might just be the bulbs or bulb sockets.  The sockets are notoriously unreliable, especially when they get old.  The ground connection is the usual suspect.  Start there.  If you have a volt meter check for voltage on the wires where they plug onto the sockets.

Subject: [6pack] Two Issues

Hello All,
As you may know from my earlier post, by TR6 is alive and running beautifully following an extensive engine rebuild that ended up taking a few years, rather than the few months I had envisioned. Life and other important things interfered. Imagine that…
I’m now finishing up the final details and have encountered two issues, probably unrelated, that I need your help in diagnosing. 
First: Only my left turn signal works and the hazard light doesn’t work at all. 
Second: The back-up lights don’t work. I’ve installed a new back up light harness. I’ve tried to study the wiring diagram but can’t quite figure out how the 3 wires connect to the main harness’ 3 bullet connectors in the passenger foot well area. I can see that two of the new harness wires are solid green and the other has a ?red? thread. The main harness wires are almost impossible to discern which are solid and which has a different color thread.
Can anyone help me sort out these issues?
Thanks.Bob FabieFredericksburg, VA
