As advised I made a temporary ground wire. It works. The problem is a bad ground on the right drum tail light! Thank You ALL for the HELP!

I made pictures of the drum tail lights when the Brake Pedal is depressed. The Left Brake Light "burns". The Right Brake light is OFF. Instead the Right Taillight "burns" weakly. What may be the cause?

I would like to see an "explosion" drawing of the Drum Tail Light. When I press the brake pedal the left brake light works. The right one does not work. In stead the right light (below in the drum) works. What can be the problem?

Thank You very much!

I have found the problem (I hope) The Armored Wire seems to be the problem. I am going to replace it by a new one. I'll replace the switch at the same time. Thank You All for the HELP!!!

I have a Modern Upper and Lower Plate. Cordless connection. How far may an Armored Wire be screwed in? I can see a few millimeters of the treaded end when I look in the distributor.

I need help. If haven't got voltage on the points in my 1929 35A. I have renewed the upper and lower Ignition Plates and the Points (Nu Rex). I have checked the newly installed Coil and the Ignition Switch, they work. I have screwed back the Ignition Switch Cable a bit in the Ignition Housing...
