1967 Charger, been off the road since 77. I took apart connectors and cleanee before driving. Everything worked

After about 3 months, driving home, noticed EL lighting fading, and headlight switch was hot. Replaced switch for safety

Last night, noticed no taillights/brake lights after a car show, no dash lights drove home

Found no power to pink wire with black stripe at brake switch had no power. Traced to headlight switch, no power.

Traced to tailight fuse, power on both sides of fuse. Odd. . Should have power at switch..

Removed fuse box and checked for power behind that fuse, had power in, no power out...

Removed fuse, cleaned socket, and wa-la fixed!!

Little tricky, posted this to possibly help other owner's. Enough power can go through to fool the test light/power probe, but not enough to work
