blinker indicator question

[4x4man514]

hey guys! im hoping someone has experienced this and can point me straight to the problem but im sure im not that lucky. i never am lol.

ive been trying to get the efi in my eb right for sometime and finally had to take it to a speed shop that understands things better than me. i had installed a new painless harnes and a ron francis bronco /mustang harness. i had everything working properly except the efi.

the speed shop got me up and running but they ripped out the ron francis harness computer and everything and installed a holley terminator system. seems to be running fine now although i havent driven it at speed yet.

anyways now my blinker indicators stay on with the lights on. they seem to blink properly but they are always lit up. i dont have the original cluster i have individual indicator lights mounted in the dash. all this worked properly before the motor work but i know they were all under my dash messing with stuff on the install. does any one know of a good place to start figuring this out? im horrible at electrical issues and this frustrates me to no end. i didnt want anyone messing around with it but after 2 yrs i couldnt keep lettin it sit. and now i guess im dealing with figuring someone elses mess.

thanks a bunch guys!

How do all the exterior turn signals, parking, and running lights behave?

That is usually a bad ground at the front indicator lights. The front parking lights are powered, wild (no) ground, the turn shares that ground and is also wild. So the park lights power the turn indicators, and the front turn indicators are the exact same circuit as the dash indicators. Rears are different as the brake lights for a circuit split. So bad (missing) ground for the front park/turn indicators.

The front turn signals are also grounding through the park circuit. But there are so many bulbs involved they don't really light up anything you can usually see. If you do hazards and brake lights at the same time (no turn signals) you double the back feed and have a better chance to see the park lights glow some even through they are turned off.

Everything on the exterior seems to be working properly.

When i originally wired it up i was having an issue there. I kept fooling with the grounds and connec tions and it all started working. But i wasnt having an indicator problem

It has really been frustrating as EVERYTHING is new. I have scraped paint around grounds and used die electric grease.
