    Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone knew the location or locations of the turnsignals ground. I was looking around at its hidden. lol. I think that is why my signals don't work. Any help appreciated! Thanks.

    Lower 48 in general. Otherwise Central Mitten.
    The stock turnsignals ground through the housing to the frame. You should only have a single wire for a hot lead. Unless there have been aftermarket lights added, or the lights modified to a dual filament.

    Well stock signals single filaments. my neutral light no longer works and the brake light is always on also. I've checked the brake light switches and they are not stuck. I'm guessing there is a short somewhere. I've wiggled the entire harness. nothing changed. all the main grounding points I have cleaned and reinstalled. my ignition is also intermittent. I'm stumped. anybody have any ideas? Know where I can get a wire diagram? Thanks folks.
