Check for power at the brake light switch. Push the pedal and see if you have power at both sides of the switch. For the trun signals make sure you have power at the flasher. It feeds the switch. You will have two flashers. One for the T/S and one for the emergency lights.

Try up around the radio or steering column. If you have no brake lights check your fuses. I thought you said eariler you had a wiring diagram?

I do have the wiring diagram, but it throws me off a little. Found the stopo switch have power on one side but not on the other even when pushing the peddle. Bought a new switch because the lights light up when I jump the wires. I hope this works...

Well I have the lights working:hl, tl, sml and replaced the stop switch and the brake lights work now. Thanks for all your help guys. Now I work on the blinkers. I have hazard lights but no turn signals. I got the turn signal switch and assume I must take the steering wheel apart??????

Did you check for power at the turn signal flasher? Remember there are two different flashers on your car. If you don't have power then replacing the switch is a waste of time.

I got power to the flasher, but I still dont have the turn signals. When I turn on the hazards they flash but not when I turn on the turn signals.

Are you sure you have the right flasher? The one that you have power to does it click when you turn the emergency lights on. If it does then you need to keep looking until you find the other one and see if it has power.
