new here, probably dumb question
I have a 79 that I bought back in 1988. Its been stored since 1995 and after all these years in the dark I finally took it out and had it "refreshed" to be road worthy, and all is good. I went to get inspected for licensing and one issue.....front right blinker not working.
So .. left side front and back work, right side back works, running lights work, the clicking noise is happening when activated, just no blinker. I switched boots to eliminate that, changed bulbs....easy stuff. I have traced it as a dark blue wire in the harness that feeds this blinker and have gone back to the firewall to test power and there is nothing.
If someone on here can give me an idea of where to go from here I would greatly appreciate it....after all these years I cant wait to drive it around again and this frustrating little issue is stopping me.
