Jim Slotts, JS Restoration restores them...

I just got a reply from JS restorations. He can restore them. He needs to test it to see what's wrong that will determine the price

Ordered a replacement switch. It has a second harness on it that mine doesn't,three wire connector. Anyone know what it is for and can I just tape it out of the way? I will send out the original to be restored but want to get the car back on the road.

It's for C-Bodies or something and had to do with blinkers on the fenders or hood I think.  Just tape it out of the way and you'll be fine.

Thanks Cody

Update I installed my new turn signal switch and now my brake lights work. Thanks for the help.

The extra three prong is a c body thing for the fender turn signals.

You can cut the connector off, tape it up and hide it in the column no prob.

I just cut the wire to the second plug off as close a s possible to the switch , they are for the turning lamps on C bodies which are a side light illuminated to help see around a corner , never used on a E body

Try JS restorations in Pa. he rebuilds a lot of light switches.. He rebuilt my top switch and headlight switch..

I had the same problem on my 67 Dart.  It was a broken wire near the switch.  I soldered in a section of wire to lengthen it and it worked out fine.
