[mystng]

This is for a friend that i told to just join, however here we go:

"my headlights work turn signals work and the headlight switch is new and the brake lights are working too and everything is grounded right put the parking lights wont work, 68 yellow firebird it has all new wiring. New bulbs as well."

Any info will be greatly appreciated thanks guys.

okay heres my question to this, didnt they use to have turn signals that worked in the front and non parking lights for the front on these years. So the turn signals would work just no parking lights on the front. Unfamiliar with Pontiacs of this year myself.

He said the old wiring harness worked with the old socket, but is using the new socket with the new complete wiring harness, has power to the socket just doesnt work with the new socket.

First detent on headlight switch should turn on parklights, all the way out on switch turns on headlights...

There is a differance in 67s and 68s....

67's when the headlights turn on, the front parklights will go out...68s the front parklights should stay on, with the headlights on...

67s had no sidemarker lights...68s had sidemarker lights...

Your buddy may have a 67 headlight switch or harness....

Turn signals should work at all times...

his has sidemarker lights. But bought a new switch with all new wiring that was labeled so you can't mix up front to back so he says. I was curious to wonder if it wasnt the new sockets not working with the new harness. I was curious about that too on the switch or harness. Have to check it out. Thanks for the input will put to good use.
