Any ideas?
84 Town Car.
It must be electrical.
Brake/turn signal light circuit had been modified to meet german laws that require a amber turn signal.
The two bulbs per light assembly had been spearated into one for turn signal only and the other for park/brake by splicing the wires and runnig a separate brake wire to the lamps.
Speed control did not work when I bought the car due to this modification. They had clipped and the green and green/red brake switch wires but they are mandatory for speed control operation. I traced that down to the switch wiring and after resoldering the wire I had speed control again.
But only when headlights are off.
I assume the dropping out of speed control after a few seconds of keeping must have something to do with the rear lights.
