The break lights don't work (breaklights sort of work when the engine isn't running) I wired them up directly to the existing wiring. Is that wrong.

    Hey so I have a 79 cx500 custom with a windjammer that recently got wrecked. Instead of sticking with the busted up windjammer I've decided just remove it and replace it with a headlight and turn signals.

    Hi. I am a newer member and appreciate any help I can get. I recently purchased a 1980 cx500c. I have a service manual but of course they can only cover so much.
