Turn signal troubleshooting
 
OK, here's one that has me scratching my head.
On Old Red when I use the turn signals the left side works fine but the right side has only the rear signal turn on. The weird part is all the lights work as advertised with the hazard flashers so the bulb and socket are good. I checked the terminals with a test light, the hazards do work fine but I'm not getting power when I use the turn signal. This means that there must be an interruption somewhere in the turn signal wiring. Have you guys had this problem? Are there any places I should look first?

Check the turn signal switch plug. Make sure the connection is clean. If not there, take a good look at the switch.

I agree with Five point.... Sometimes the wire connection will push out of the connector or not make a good contact...
If thats not it. Make sure power is coming out of the switch... If no power out of the switch.... Then you have a bad contact in the switch..

Update: After a lot more troubleshooting I isolated the problem down to the switch, just like you guys suggested. I pulled the switch out to try swapping with one for a tilt-wheel. It didn't fit. While I had the old switch out I was able to get to the contacts with a scrub pad and clean them off. The signal is working now, I just hope it keeps doing so.
