Headlights not Working
Mark69Sportsroof:
Hi Everyone, I have a new challenge with the 68 Mercury. All my lights work except for headlights and flashers. I checked the wiring harness where the main harness connects to the headlight harness. I used my test light and had power on one connectors. But no headlights. What should I do next?
All I did on the flashers was push the steering column flasher button in and now it is stuck. Any guidance to my next step?
Still not to bad for sitting in the junk yard for 40 years. Thanks Mark

If it were a Mustang I would say check or substitute the headlight switch because that is where many faults are. I don't know about the 68 Mercury you are working on unless it is a Cougar in which case is basically the same as a Mustang.

Likely a bad connection at the dimmer switch.

Thanks guys. I just started to find a new headlight switch. Not an easy task being a Mercury. How would I check the dimmer switch to see if that's the problem? Thanks Mark
