Turn Signals

Perhaps I can get some help with this:

Left hand turn signals work fine.

The emergency flashers work on the left side only.

Right hand the signal lights come on but do not blink, however the blinking sound does.

All bulbs have been replaced with new.

Any help appreciated.

I had the same issues on my car. Turned out it was the ground adjacent to the light housing needed to be cleaned very well and then reinstalled. I cleaned both body and wire eyelets and installed dielectric grease.
Give it a shot.

CHeck that your two-filiment bulbs (like the rear brake/parking light bulbs) aren't installed 180 degrees off. That gave my car some unusual lighting outcomes where lights that weren't even in that circuit would flash. I was about to light a bundle of sage and try to exercise the demons out of the car when i checked them again and found the issue.

That's very odd. It shouldn't even be possible to install them that way. That's why the little teats on the side of the lamp base are offset to match the offset slots in the lamp sockets. They can only fit securely one way. Maybe the lamps or sockets you were dealing with were old ones that didn't have this feature.

Yes, check proper bulb contacts and grounds.
