Found the short.
Somewhat intermittent. From the fuse box to the brake switch the wires were pinch together. White had power all the time keeping the light on. Not sure why before that the lights stayed on before with fused pulled, but changed the signal flasher switch anyway.
All the best to...
Another update..
Pulling fuse 7 brakes go out, with pink and white wires disconnected.
Putting fuse 7 back in, left brake light lights up.... then plugging in the signal harness the other rt brake lights up. I believe that part to be correct.where harness lights both brake lights.
My guess...
The saga continues.
I've got a replacement switch.
With key off the pink and white brake switch unplugged, and the signal switch unplugged at the bottom of the column, the left brake light remains on. At least the weather is pleasant and cooperating!
I unplugged the flat signal/ flasher connector and the brake lights turned off. Thanks for the tip "70furyconv" and others. It's looks like the same switch as a 70's E body and also Aspen/ Volare! Did Mopar use the same switch across the line of cars from 70 (key in column ) up until they put...

Any suggestions? Signals and lights work as they should.
Does anybody have a lighting...
I have run 15x8 super coupe wheels with 4.125 back spacing or equal for 30 years or various b and c body car with Zero issues. From 225 70r15 , 235 70r15. 255 60r15, 275 60r 15.
Imo, looks better filling the wheel well and handles much better. Then Add good shocks and sway bars.
Can you send some pictures of the fender(s) to my email address ( [email protected] ) with pricing and shipping to zip code 01040 or text to my telephone. 413 454 2913. We are doing a grandfather/father/sons project.
