front signal and parking lights not working

[steve'62]

Does anyone know if the problem could be tied into the headlight switch? Signals work in the rear but getting nothing up front?

Start off with a light tester. Check if you have juice coming from the switch.

Make sure you have a GOOD ground up there. Then check your plugs. They tend to get a little corroded. If you've got light in the back the front should be powered too.... Blinkers work??

Check the connector at the firewall(bulkhead). As mentioned, make sure the hood is grounded good.
The headlight switch will not effect the turn signals in any way. If neither owrk on either side, I would first suspect a grounding issue.

Thanks guys, I'm going to check the ground out. The plugs are a little corroded. The brake light and rear signals work, the headlights work. I check the bulkhead at the firewall. I don't have a wiring diagram so I'm just kinda troubleshooting 1 thing at a time. Both of the bulbs seem good, thanks for your help!

The hood is grounded through the hinges, doesn't make good contact all the time. Had a similar problem with my 65. Ran a small ground wire from a hinge bolt on the hood to a hinge bolt a on the fire wall. Haven't had a problem since.

Nice old goalie, this is a 65 as well, sold my 62. That's the next thing I am going to check. A lot of Christmas priority in my way right now! Hopefully I can check it out later to tonight or In the morning and get back to you guys. Thanks for the help!
