Could be a bad switch but:       re-check ALL the bulbs very carefully when on left blink and see if the       parking lights are also blinking dimly. Odds are there is an internally       shorted bulb or corroded socket or bad ground that all current to find a       ground through somewhere else, like the right side bulbs.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
