It's An Elictrical Problem. When I Have The Head Lights On The Right Turn Indicator Stays Lit On The Dashboard, Except When You Use The Right Turn Signal It Works Correctly.
Thanks.

Goose, Sounds like a similar problem I have seen on my cars. Check the turn signal bulb filiments. the one that is staying on might have the parking filiment blown. Also check the bulb socket connection to ground. I have had the spring keepers that hold the bulb socket to the grille on my 70 cause that symptom.

From my knowledge, its important to check all bulbs, that the filament is not blown, and be sure they are correct like bulb number 1157 is a comon one. When you turn on your signal and the signal lamp in the dash stays on, that is a warning there is a burt flasher bulb.
My two sence!

Yep - my experience too. Dual-filament blub, with one burned out.
