Reply to "No Back up lights"

Well I finally beat Tony. At least this time. George was correct, the ancient 30+ year old female end inside the nylon connector was bad.

After congratulating myself on beating Tony,I buttoned everything back up and checked one last time that everything was working correctly. What the heck, now no left tail light. I took the test light to the tail light socket and no power. Must be a fuse, simple enough. But the fuses look fine. Switch a couple around still nothing. Tony is back and laughing like hell. Than I remember that these finely engineered ceramic fuses can look intact and still be bad. No problem I have the mandatory extra fuses. Well everything but 8 amp. A quick trip up to NAPA and they actually had the old style ceramic fuses.
(Made in Taiwan, how did China miss out on this one?) I replaced all of the 8 amp fuses and all lights in every combination are now working .

I won this round but I do not think anyone ever really beats Tony. Tony and his cousins live in all of our cars and I would not have it any other way.

Good luck to all !
