no turn signals (m1008)

[mouse]

i just picked up a 1986 m1008 last night,it has 17000.mil on it(documented).the 4 way flashers work, but the turn signals dont.when i was driving it home ,the left indicatorlight would stay on and the right turn signal would work. then i would hit a bump,and the left indicator light would go out, now the right turn signal would not work.(back and forth all the way home) i looked where the trailer lights plug in for a bad ground.what should the trailer harnes look like? i have a dubble male,and a dubble female hanging there. is this correct? any suggestions :banghead:

have you checked the bulbs? when one light stays on, from past experience it has been a burnt bulb. Also check the ground for the tail lights.. which if like my 82 Civvy c-10 should be on the drivers side on a crossmember, possibly part of the bed.

checked bulbs,grounds, trailer hitch ground,and harness.i did find a melted wire under the dash were thay jumped the black out switches.

So what was the conclusion? The left turn signal on my M1008 is just a constant light even though all bulbs and grounds are good (I even replaced the left front bulb socket with no change).
