Another Electrical Question, Turn Signals.
From what I understand when you turn on your lights, if you have a turn signal out it will illuminate, on the dash, in the direction of the lamp that is out. Correct? Well today I have found that I have the right turn signal lamp(dash) lit. I walked around the car and all the lights are working as they should. Does anyone have any idea where to look to see if I can correct this. This same thing may also fix my brand new clock that did work before the engine swap.
Thanks for any help guys.

Sounds like you have a wire that has found an alternate ground. A lot of these problems can be cured by cleaning up the contacts/lamp holders with emory cloth. If that doesn't help, you'll have to start tracing wires.

Try removing the bulb from the right front socket. If the light on the dash goes out, then the right from socket is searching for a ground through the right dash indicator.

Joe, thanks for the tip but, I just tried that. Still have a green light on the dash and the lights will still blink on that side too. :confused: The wiring diagram shows the ground to be all in one place for all the front lights. Is this on the radiator support?
