    Rear lights do not work
    I have a 1974 Dodge Dart base model and my rear lights stopped working. I used a test light on the wires to see if they had power running through them and they did. I also changed the bulbs but all rear lights, including reverse lights, still don't work. Any suggestions??

    Yeah it's the whole back end that's not lighting up even though there's power. I'm having trouble finding my ground and I'm hoping that's just what the problem is.
