NO BRAKE LIGHTS TURN SIGNALS

(1/3) > >>

bicent truck:
I took bed off for restoration of 76 C10 longbed, and recently needing truck on the road to get some welding done ( new exhaust), I can't seem to get the brakes or lights in general to work on rear of truck. I tied the lights and harness back onto frame temporarily, and screwed the ground to the frame, which I think it might be still a grounding problem. I have power back there with a test light. I did paint the frame with rustproofing after grinding and cleaning it, but sanded a small spot in frame where ground was fastened for good contact. Any suggestions? Not sure if it's directly related but my fuel gauge doesn't work properly all of a sudden after 30 years, is this tied directly into ground or lights or just a coincidence. Everything going the wrong way right now, instead of improvements I'm going backwards!

front directional lights both work fine, nothing working in rear, they worked fine with bed on few months ago.

the ground wire off rear harness is bolt and nutted to frame. I sanded the hole it went in since I previously paintd frame with anti rust.
