Automatic or manual transmission?

Checked your fuses?

Owner-added trailer harness installed?

Most of your posts are one line "why doesn't this work" statements, almost as if you immediately start a thread the instant there's an issue. What have you done yourself so far to understand the issue? What troubleshooting have you done? AKA, do you have power at the switch? Do you have power at the fuse panel?

Check your electrical grounds. Had that issue on a different 77 F-150 that I had. Make sure the grounds are rust/corrosion free and another issue I found was wire insulation dry cracking. It is a tedious job going hand over hand tracing wiring and checking for broken insulation/wires ect. That is where I would start,... my two cents.
