Ground problem...........I would guess a wire has worn somewhere, and is shorting to a legit ground.

John,

Welcome to my world. :cry I am troubleshooting the electrical system in mine right now. I agree that it sounds like a ground issue. You also may want to check the flasher and see if it is still good. I turn my lights on and both green arrows light up. :mad

It's also worth a shot to check all of your bulbs. Make sure the two filament bulbs still have two filaments!
