Thanks to the help of a friend, my taillights and sidemarkers now work.

I checked the headlight switch, and thanks to a good wiring diagram, we figured that we could check the red/green wire voltage at the fuse panel. With the car off, it showed 11.5 volts. On the other side of the fuse box, the voltage dropped to 10 volts. My friend thought the wire's terminal seemed loose, and tightened it with pliers. That did the trick. We had light, and it was good.

It's great to have friends who are execs in family-owned companies. Not only did he give me a job, but he let me pull the car into the plant/warehouse so we wouldn't have to work in the cold.

Thanks to everyone who helped with this.
