If you don't own a power probe, I suggest you get one! Very handy in fixing all of my non functioning running and turn signal lights. They haven't worked since I've owned the truck (besides brake lights and headlights).

I even have a functioning license plate light.

Nice. Like how it has the turn signals in the grill and the 69/70 bumper.

Thanks. When I bought the truck the front bumper had hit a pole and I had this bumper lying around so on it went.

that's a great looking truck - "1972 Cheyenne Super 20 custom camper" that's a mouth full!

Nice truck, nice color!

What kind of wiring problems did you find?

Yes I just refer to it as the “yellow one”

Most of the problems were poor grounds as normal. Had some cut wires - not sure why someone mangled them.

I just purchase on of the power probes myself. I need to learn how to use it. I want to troubleshoot my brake system ground in the instrument cluster that is suppose to light up when you turn the key.

What’s nice about it is that you can apply power or ground to a circuit. Easy to use.
