Did this just start; i.e. was it working properly before?

Probably not too relevant, but I completely wired my BN2's bare chassis 
with a new harness and the shop manual's schematic. Everything worked 
perfectly, except the rear turn signals (IIRC, one worked and one 
didn't--it's been 10 years or more). We double-checked everything, and 
took the switch box apart and inspected everything, checked the flasher, 
etc. It took several days of frustrating troubleshooting, but I finally 
discovered the *brand new* rear harness had an improperly color-coded wire.
