I am not getting power to my park lamps at the front of the car. When I turn the park lamp switch on inside the car, the rear ones come on fine, but none of the 4 in front get power. I checked it with my volt meter.

The turn signal wire (green with yellow stripe) gets power fine. The headlights, and dash lights all work fine too.
So something tells me it's a problem in the headlight harness, but I don't know where to start checking stuff. :shrug:

The headlight harness is out of my 87 5.0 parts car, if that helps any.

Thanks.
 
I got it figured out.

Where the headlight harness plugs into the dash harness near the battery, there was no power going to the park lamp wire. The wire colors didn't match either. Maybe it is another 4cyl to V8 swap thing that isn't mentioned?

So I used the power source for the fog lights and wired the park lamps to that.
