Re: lights

Which lights? Fog lights, low beams, high beams, parking lights?
Check your fuses, check your light switch.

Re: lights

If you get parking lights, and your fuses check ok, it will be the headlamp switch. I have seen a couple on E-bay for sale.

Re: lights

Are you talking about the button above your hazard lights?
If so, no. The headlamp switch is on the left hand side, it controls your parking lights, lows, and high beams. You have to remove the steering column to get it out.

Re: lights

Buy a Haynes manual and look at the wiring diagram, there is one for 1984 models in great detail.
Study the book.
Best 15 bucks you could spend on your car.

Re: lights

info on the switch?

turn **** for lights
push forward for high beams
pull backward to flash highs
push down for left turn signal
push up for right turn signal

and in order to remove it, you need to pull the steering column cover and steering wheel off.
