Recently, I purchased a 1980 VW diesel rabbit to burn biodiesel. Although, I'm having problems with the left rear turn signal. For the first few days everything worked correctly, but now when I flip on the left turn signal and apply the brake the turn signal indicator on the dash flickers on and off and emits a snapping sound. But the signal works fine up until I press the brake peddle.
I checked the bulbs for any that might have been burned out, but didn't find anything. All the bulbs light up with the corresponding action correctly (i.e. turn signal - turn signal lamp, running light - running light lamp). Not sure about the brake light, as I haven't had anyone around to check while I depress the peddle. I was wondering if maybe some of the wiring may have been switched around at the lamp connections, but I just haven't had time to play around with it.
If anyone has any information it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, david
