drove the bn6 in the dark for the first time in over a year and noticed that my signal lights were inop with the headlights on.  investigated today and discovered that the brake lights do not work with lights on, either.  i tracked all the wiring and everything is by the book.  when the headlights and park lights are off, the left signal is slow, the pilot light on dash works, but the right signal comes on very weak at the same time.  i can hear the signal flasher every click.  with the right signal on, there is no left signal at the same time, but the pilot light only flashes once, the flasher unit makes one click, then stops, and the right signal flashes at a faster rate than the left one.  the brake lights work fine when no headlights are on.   i ran out of time to investigate further, but wondered if any electrical genius out there had any idea of where to start.  new wiring harness, flasher relay unit on bulkhead and new lucas signal flasher during restoration.  hjim
