Turn signal problems continue

My turn signaql problems continue. I now have 2 quartz lamps in rear lights and 1154's in front. With headlights off both front and rear turn signals work properly both left and right.

With parking lights on both sides will flash simultaneously when either the right or left turn signals are on.

With headlights on with right signal, both rears flash but only right front very weakly. Can hardly see it. With left signal, both rears flash, but only left front flashs.



Any suggestions?

    I know it may sound basic, but you need to check and re-check that you have all the connections right on the t erminal pposts each side of the radiator. And you need to earth each lamp housing. A bad earth can cause all sorts of odd things. If necessary, solder a wire to the bulb holder itself, and run back to the screw on the terminl block that holds it to the frame. I had to do this with my Essex recently (I have externally mounted accessory indicator lamps). The earth had failed from the mounting bar back to the chassis, and nothing would work right. A seperate earth wire to each side cured it. Good luck,
