Change the headlight switch.

If the switch fails to fix the problem, you may want to pull the headlamps out and check the connection at the back. Lastly, inspect the complete headlight wiring harness for missing insulation, exposed or frayed wires, or loose firewall connection.

Why don't backup lights work on 1966 mustang after replacing neutral safety switch?

Even after replacing the switch it needs to be aligned with the shifter. Put the car in reverse and then have someone watch the lights as you loosen the switch and then rotate it slightly forward or backwards. once the lights come on, secure it in position.


Why don't the head lights work on my 1966 mustang all other lights work?

I would guess the headlight dimmer switch on the floor board is bad or has a loose wire. Possibly the head light switch is bad. The headlight switch has a separate circuit breaker for just the head lights.

How do you fix the brake lights on a 1966 mustang?

How the brake lights work on a 66 Mustang is very simple. Power goes from the headlight switch to the brake light switch, then through the turn signal switch and back to the brake lights. There is no fuse in that system. There is a self resetting circuit breaker in the headlight switch, but, if that was tripped, none of the lights on the car would work. The first thing to check is the brake light switch itself by bypassing it. Unplug the connector from the switch and run a jumper from from one slot in the connector to the other. If the brake lights come on, replace the brake light switch. If they don't, the problem is either a wire has lost continuity or there is a problem in the turn signal switch.

Where is the starte netural switch for your back up lights on your 1966 ford mustang?

The back up light switch is mounted directly to the transmission. When you engage the shifter into reverse, the shifter physically actuates the switch's button, turning the back up lights on. It's a simple, but effective little system.Note: If you're doing a T5 swap or a similar project, the original back up light switch bracket will not adapt to the new transmission. You will need to have one custom fabricated.
