OK..not too long ago I re-wired my '63 C-10 LWB using an EZ-Wire harness and everything has been working fine since...until yesterday. I stopped at a light on my way to work and I could hear the flasher clicking like my turn signal was on. I checked the dash and no indicator lights were lit, tried the right and left signals using the switch in the column...indicator lights lit up appropriately and I could see the turn signals reflected off the car behind me in my mirror. When I got to work I walked around the truck and sure enough the right rear turn signal was blinking, but no indication on the dash and the turn signal switch was in the "neutral" position. I'm thinking either a bad switch (it's a replacement from Chevy Duty installed same time as harness) or I need to go back through and check my grounds.

Any thoughts?

Bad ground ... a wire shorting out somewhere ... that's my guess.

I am not totaly sure but my first thought would be the switch. I am not sure if a bad ground would cause this problem.

Thanks guys, I'm leaning toward the switch myself, but I'll probably go through all of the grounds anyway just to make sure.

Lastest update...it appears that everyone was right! The switch is bad and so is the ground on the right rear turn signal. Parts on order as I type. I took the switch apart...talk about cheap crap.
