1965 Right Rear Brake Lights Don't Work

[Jim Z.]

The car is not equipped with the Comfort and Convenience Group.

The turn signals work front and back, left and right (all bulbs are bright).
When the brake is depressed, the turn signals work front and back, left and right (both bulbs are bright).

The drivers side brake lights both work when the brake pedal is
depressed (both bright). The passenger brake lights do not.

Is this a wiring problem or turn signal switch problem?
Thanks, Jim

Check the dark green wire at the turn signal switch connector while pushing on the brake pedal.

Jim, Add one more thing to Rogers post, look at the connecter under column to make sure none of the pins backed out of connector sometimes this happens when working under the dash. or re-assy of the car.

Roger, Edward thanks for your quick responses. I re-seated the connectors under the steering column and that fixed the problem.
Thanks again! Jim
