82 F150 cancel cam fixed but still no turn or brake lights

My cancel cam broke last year so I took it out and didn't have time to put the new one in. While out I had no taillights/brake lights. I put the new camback in last weekend and now I have taillights but still no brake lights or turn signals.

I checked the fuses and one was burnt so I replaced it and I have tried a new flasher but still no go. Hazards work but only to the front not the back. I wasn't using my multimeter correctly so I am not sure about power through the turn signal flasher.

Everything I have read says turn signal switch but that is only available through LMC and if I can fix it without going that way of course I would prefer it.

Any ideas would be great.

Thanks,
Shawn.

RockAuto has the switch, albeit a little spendy. Tilt or no-tilt?

Y'know, I have a switch at home somewhere (oh snap, where is it?). Didn't fit my '85 because of the angle in which the signal lever arm screws in, doesn't match the column. I think I was just sloppy about what part I ordered. I wonder if this one would fit yours. I'll let you know if I find it.

It's a tilt column that's why I'm having issues. No one but LMC does the tilt switch. Also I live in Canada so exchange and freight suck right now. Let me know which one you have and maybe we can figure something out.

Thanks for the reply.

Your local Ford dealer doesn't have/can't get one?

I never even thought to check with the dealer. I'll try that tomorrow. Thanks for the idea.
