lights

Tony, What are we working on someone may have gone thru this on theirs.

Now lets see if we can help a little. IIRC you don't have a TSM yet right? On most cars you have to have the key to run/on but motor does not need to be running for turn & B/U lights to work. Now it may also need to be on for the brake lights to work too as I think some older cars were that way?

I know one of the big things of our cars is poor connections at the fuse panel between fuse holders & fuses because of corrosion. Disconnect batt. and using fine sand paper clean the holder and all fuse ends. Might be best to replace the fuses with new ones. Before you install the fuses pinch the holders together a little to grip the fuse better.
Now see what happens and if still the same you will need to dig deeper.
Do you have power into the brake light switch and if so do you have power out when on the brake peddle? if not in you will have to trace back to find out why. If yes in but not out replace the switch.

Now for turn lights the turn switch could have corrosion on the contacts like the fuses. Sometimes you can spray cleaner and work the switch to get it clean but if not you will need to pull the wheel off.
Also may want to check if you have power going into the turn switch. If not trace back why not and fix it. If you have power in check how it goes out and trace it all the way to the bulbs.
Did you replace the flasher it could be bad and why no lights.

NSS out of adjustment could be why not B/U lights. Again do you have power in to & out of the NSS or B/U light switch?
That should keep you busy

have the tsm as well will be on the hunt for all options you have listed and thanks 

will do

The flasher element should be held on by a spring clip on the back of the instrument cluster. Look in the Electrical section of your TSM and there should be a picture of the cluster. Your brake switch should be a pressure switch attached to the bottom of the master cylinder.

If it is the original flasher unit you have to remember their operation is mechanical and is based on thermal load. Age will slow them down or kill them. You can either put in a like replacement or switch to an electronic replacement like an EL12. Triton makes an EL12 electronic unit that produces a loud "clicking" sound if you want to retain the stock sound of the mechanical version.
