Right blinker dash light is on

Postby RCCUMMINS89 » Sun Aug 11, 2013 7:55 pm

Ok..............

When I turn on the headlights, the right blinker light on the dash comes on. Outside of the truck everything is normal. My blinker operates normally. My hazards, only the left hazard operates (both worked prior).

Now the funky stuff........If I'm in gear and accelerate the light goes off. In neutral and I rev it up with the same pedal spot, it stays on.

WTF

Bad ground on a parking light on the right side. ;)

I think pete's on.

I didn't have time to confirm today, but I noticed that my air filter had smashed the blinker wiring harness at the connector. I lifted the filter up, went back in the dash and the light was off. Later I fixed the air filter issue, but the light was on after. But, I'm sure that's the problem.

Grounds do weird stuff. The builder of my crew cab ran everything under the dash to the same crappy little ground. The radio display would flash with the turn signals and it would shut off altogether when I used the pacbrake.
