Electrical problem
1974 Ford Ranchero V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I have no break lights, they were working and then stopped, I found a loose wire on the brake peddle switch and fixed it, but still do not have any brake lights. Therunning lights, turn signals all work fine.

Do you have any suggestion?

You should have power on both side of the brake switch when pedal is applied-if so either you have an open or ground problem in the brake circuit-trace the wire back
