Hello all, been searching but unable to find a specific thread of anyone else encountering this.
so out of no where, rear blinker acting weird when brake is applied, or lights are on, or both.
then the surround doesn’t work and flashes instead of blinker and the blinker randomly flashes and then stops.
So obviously I assumed light assembly fault, decided to test that theory, swapped to working side and the assembly works, swapped the other way to test if it’s connector, low and behold doesn’t work and get the same results as said at the top.
tested connections with multimeter on good side(passenger), one connection has a solid unchanging voltage when lights are on (seems right) blinker on and another pin fluctuates like you’d expect for a blinker.
So assumed it should match on “bad”side(driver) what should be the solid unchanging pin is fluctuating on bad side and not high enough volts to match working side, uh oh, checked blinker pin it is fluctuating like expected but also not high enough.
so that to me tells me there is something wrong somewhere in the wiring, so before I tear absolutely everything apart on my only vehicle, any recommendations of where to check first or loom connections and locations of where to check?

have videos of it acting weird but hopefully I explained well enough but if not I’ll upload.
