Indicators

It's probably a silly question but,

when i have my lights on, all the indicators on my left side stay on constantly and my left parking light doesnt come on.

whats the dealio?

tried replacing the globe.
checked all the fuses that i thought the parkers would be on with alot of trial and error but none of them changed anything.

Maybe you have the connectors mixed up, does your parker flash when you have the blinker on?

nope, it just stays off. when i turn the left indicators on they tick crazy like a disco but dont actually flash.

Yeah I think in most cars the indicators will tick faster to let you know if a bulb is gone or it's not flashing but yeah you changed it so that's weird.

Seen that before, especially cars with alloy bars. The front indicator and parklight share a common ground.
You have a dirty ground/broken wire at this point.

what the littlewhiteute guy said.... check your grounds.... an bad earthing electrical system will cause all kind off havic.....if you have to run new earth wires independent of the original system it wont hurt....
