FC3S exterior light issue.

hay.

i've got all my mechanicals worked out... now i have a lighting issue.

Front left corner does not work properly.

the left marker light doesn't work at all and the signal on the front does not work properly. Its seemingly like a grounding issue, the signal is dim and the front parking light goes out if the signal is turned on and flashes the signal dimly. I've checked all the bulbs, replaced the whole assembly, so it must be in the harness that clips in beside the battery.

where is the ground for this? does each corner have a seperate ground? has anyone had/heard of this issue?

I know how to fix the similar issues on VW's, but obviously its not setup the same.

Thanks!!!

Sounds like a bad ground, or wire. Get your Haynes book out.
