Even when I disconnect the rear brake/tail light wiriring harness on the driver's side fender well, when the ignition switch is turned off, the passenger side front turn signal/parking light will light up, (but doesn't flash), when the right turn signal switch is on, for as long as the brake pedal is being depressed..
That's why I'm wondering, if maybe the passenger side turn signal light is somehow shorting out inside the bulb socket and causing the problem..
Also, I'd like to find out how to correctly test the passenger side turn light socket with a OHM meter, or whatever is the best way to check it for shorting out, before deciding to cut it off, incase that isn't the problem, which would make more work in having to splice it back together, again..
You mentioned you were having a ton of problems with my front wire harness and a generous member (Psycopete) on here shipped me one...I dragged my feet on installing it for about six months (mostly due to weather) but after I put it in finally all electrical problems vanished...
Do you recall if the electrical problems you were having, were similar the electrical problems I'm having..
When you replaced the wiring harness, the under dash fuse block looks like it's attached to the wiring harness, too, isn't it..
How long did it take to replace the wiring harness, you mentioned doing, as it looks like it would be a big job..
