Default turn signal problems

On 76, 350, ac, at.
I changed the bulbs in the tach & speedo also replaced bad hl switch (switch was good, the vac. connection on the side was bad). tested everthing and worked fine.
Now when I turn on hl's I get weak light on both turn signals. The signals work and hazards work. All the other lights work as they should.
Although the turn signals do seem to blink slow.
I'm looking at all connections for the 2nd time.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks

Our cars are real bad for ground problems...re trace your steps & look for grounding problems..loose wires...bad connectors stuff like that.

Thanks, I isolated the problem in the wiring harness in the tail light assembly in the back of the car.
