    O. K. This time, for a couple of days when I pushed the lever up for a right turn signal the dashboard light lit up solid and neither front or back signals lit up. I checked the bulbs, they seem fine. Left turn signals worked fine. Now, today it's reversed. The right side works properly and the left side has the same symptoms. A solid light on the dash and the outside lights don't work

    IF,,,,,,the arrow lights up in the dash then the turn signal switch is sending juice to it,,,,,so take the lens off the front,,,,,put on that turn signal,,,,,hook a 12 volt test light or a jumper wire to ground,,,,touch the base of the bulb, the socket and the frame of the light,,,,,see if you lost ground on one of those 3 places,,,,,Do the brake lights work?

    if you was adventurous and wanted to check out the turn signal switch circuit,,,,you would go to the 2 connectors above the brake pedal and see what the wires are doing,,,,,dark green goes to the RR brake/turn bulb....yellow to LR.....light blue-LF dash bulb and turn signal....dark blue-RF.....white is power up from brake light switch.....purple is power from flasher....black is the horn......so take a voltmeter or test light and see if those wires are doing their job,,,,if they are,,,,problem is at the bulbs,,,,,
