ok I know this should prob go under technical but I fugured it would get more looks here. SO I have my front end back on, althought its noi welded yet, but the 2 front body mounts are bolted up and the fenders too, my problem is I have no headlights or the laft front running light. All the others are good, I have reverse, brake, tail and signals front an rear. Any ideas what the hell is wrong here guys? I'm starting to really check into the wires and will be checking under my dash here shortly. And yes all the fuses are good

ok, you checked the fuses but have you tested the actual wires at the headlight to make sure that it's getting 12 volts? Also have you checked the grounds using a v.o.m. or test light?

lemme know what happens and if you still have problems i can probably get you a wiring diagram for the truck.

old toyota wiring sucks, it uses weird negative switching for a start, so when u flip the coloumb it opens the earth
i junked all that wireing and used 5mm wireing, dip switches and relays from the batt. now its bright and clear. one day ill get an auto electrician to wire it properly to the cloumb but ah well its good for now
