Help!

1969 f250 with no break lights.
Everything else except the dome light works.
Even the controls for the trailer breaks shows the red light when the break is pushed, trailer light don't come on either.
New flasher switch, headlight switch, break switch. Constant power everywhere I can think to check.

Maybe a grounding problem? Remove the rear tail light housing(s) and check for clean ground connections.

Did you break your brake lights?

Turn signal switch (brake lights run through there), and grounds. Pretty simple stuff...

New turn signal switch and they worked after I put it in. Ground wires I haven't looked at.
