Terry;  Your pump cam must be at its high point.  Try turning the engine over one turn this will turn the cam a half turn to the low point.

Kaiser Forum / Re: Rt side brake light doesn't work, 54 K late special

« Last post by joefrazer on September 01, 2024, 06:53:07 AM »

One side blinking faster than the other usually means one of the bulbs is not working. Is the front bulb working? I have a 54, however, it's apart right now so I can't check to be sure but if memory serves, the upper lamp did not blink when the turn signal was actuated. With no turn signal, if you step on the brake, does the left upper lamp get brighter or does it stay at tail lamp illumination?

Thank you for the tip, Joe. I pulled the top right side bulb, but it made no difference. I fiddled around with the 1158 bulbs in both sockets, checking for clean contacts and solid wire connections. Still no brake light on the right side, but now I notice another issue. The top and bottom bulbs blink together like they do on the left side but when I turn on the headlights, the top and bottom right side bulbs alternate blinking. The left side bulbs still blink together. I don't know if it matters but the right side bulbs blink maybe 50% faster than the left side. I think the issue runs deep into the wiring. I am going to dive under the dash and start checking and cleaning more contacts and wires, especially the directional signal plug connector. I've been referring to the 1953 and 1954 Manhattan schematics I have. The '53 shows 1 bulb and the '54 shows 3 bulbs. I split the difference for my late Special!

   I prepped and painted the three spare rims that I have and installed them on the car, they all tighten up perfectly! The ones on the car either had the raised lips flattened or the holes wollowed out. Thank you for all of your comments.

StevenRai, tell us all about the KF products you own or have owned.  Your post looks like someone who's only on here to promote their business website.  I've reported it to the moderator so unless you let us know which KF cars you're familiar with it will be removed.  In the meantime, until we can be certain he's a legitimate KF fan, please no one patronize his business.
