Default Tail light help

Hello I have a 1997 F 150. It has been lifted and runs 33's. I do not know any history other than it still had the controllers for emergency lighting. The problem I am having is the the tail lights work for the driving lights but not the turn or brake lights. Any ideas would be a great help.
Thank You

Have you checked the bulbs? pull the plugs and check for voltage at the pins. If you have voltage check for continuity on ground. Good luck

Search for problems with the Multifunction Switch wiring harness. It's on top of the steering column. A few of the wires like to come out of the plastic harness.




O'reilly sells a $20 replacement harness that I spliced into the original wiring.

Well I got 1 brake light to work and 1 turn signal to work. I have some absolutely wonderful wiring work. Like the radio being wired into the main power wire for the brake lights. More work to do. Thank You, Shaun
