So an update. I disconnected the rear harness at the kick panel. I tested each feed from the main harness and everything worked as it should. This led me to believe the issue lay in the rear harness. When I plugged everything back in, the taillights AND backup lights lit up. Frustrated, I pulled up the sill plates and back seat to inspect the harness. There was a patch out in for the hot wire going to exterior courtesy lights and trunk light etc. I cut that wire and viola! Taillights and backup lights went out. Started car, everything worked except courtesy lights and trunklight and rear dome light. I decided to leave it for another day. Buttoned everything back up. Now.....when I turn on the ignition the green turn indicators light up. WTH?. Frustrated to infinity and beyond.

Sidelights work as they should. TL works fine. Front signal/park lights work as the should except left signal. Vexing. I will pull fuses tomorrow and see what's what. My leaning is towards faulty headlamp switch or signal switch

I have confirmed that side lights are not on, but they do work. Brake lights function as well. I was driving it Monday night and all was fine until I made a left turn. That's when I noticed signal issue. I should also mention that the left signal lit up when key was OFF. Didnt flash, but lit up front and rear. Right side didn't come on, only left when the lever was in the left position. The left arrow seemed dimmer than right arrow. Not sure about TL working. It has been working perfectly til I found a dead battery last night. Battery on charger.

Hey guys,
My 55 Pat's tail lights are stuck on. Just the tail lights. No park lights or dash lights, just tail lights wont go out. Additionally, the left signal wont blink. Bright filament lights up front and rear, but no flash. Right side is fine. Ideas? Thanks!

1) need to replace front left window motor. FSM says to use a special tool to remove door handle? Similar to GM?
2) power steering seems not very power-like. My 57 chrysler is very agile in parking lots.....the Patrician...not so much. What should I expect? 3) washer fluid top has vacuum and electrical connections. Nothing hooked up. 4) heater core housing is removed from under right inner dash? Thanks for the help guys Mark

Yes, I did drive it home. There a few moments of clenched cheeks on a few braking points. I will go through brakes. I'm making notes of the upgrades. To answer a question, I found the car on a craigslist search. I missed out on a 51 sedan in our state. I wasnt going to miss out on another opportunity. Paid full asking g price too!
