Turn signal help

Automotive Stud

Well-known member
I have a turn signal switch that I believe is from an F100 but it may be from a passenger car. I can't seem to find a wiring diagram for it, it is six wire and three of the wires look green to me.

I hooked it up the best I could via process of elimination. Brake lights work fine and the left turn signal works fine. When I put the right turn signal on the right rear does not flash. If my foot is on the brake I lose both brake lights when the right signal is on. Do I still have a wire crossed? Is there a way to test the switch with a meter to see which wire is which?

Thanks!
 
Here's a diagram for the F-100 switch. Hope this helps!

Found this in my shoebox manual....For a '51 car.
Broke into sections so it's easier to see.
Lower left corner is a place to start.

If you have three wires that look the same, try to expose six inches of each. Wipe the wires clean with a solvent, then look at each to find a very small colored stripe. Each "same" wire should be different.
