2 issues:

1) When I brake the front turn signal goes on along with the brake lights.

2) The flashing parking brake indicator also causes both left and right turn signal indicators to flash.

From what I can tell from the electrical schematic both tie into the emergency light switch.

Just wondering if I could get some advice before I pull the emergency switch to inspect for defects.

Flashing relay is new.

@Highland

Which front turnsignal lights up? One side or both? If on one side, that means the brake bulb has lost its ground. If the brake bulb loses ground, both filaments will light up and the return path is through the running light in the front turnsignal.

About the flashing relay, is it a new unit? What p/n?
