    Unhappy Flasher issue help needed

    I replaced the flasher relay because I could hear it activating all the time even though none of the lights were flashing. The new relay from Pelican seems to have fixed that problem and all the lights flash correctly. However when none of the flashers are operating, the two green arrows stay lit up faintly. They go out and work correctly when using the turn signal or emergency flasher switch. Any ideas what to check? This is in a 1973.5 911T.

    Had similar problem. It was the grounds for the front lamp assemblies. I have found over the years, more times than not, its the grounds.

    If still in doubt, create a separate ground test line. Long piece of wire with say an alligator clip on each end. Attach one end to absolutely certain ground and the other to say, a turn signal housing common ground. Then test again.

    (Behind the dash are common gang-ground locations. Depending on year, behind the two left gauges of the instrument cluster)
