Turn Signals - One Dim & One Bright

The turn signal indicator on my dash blinks brightly in one direction and dim in the other. The turn signals themselves work fine though. I'm sure its a bad ground, but where? By the way, I have the late gauges that only have a single bulb for both directions.

The grounds for the front turn signals are behind each headlight. They are male terminals that are welded onto the body. Clean them with a wire brush ('cause it works.") or a Scotch Brite pad. The rear lights ground to the point under the relay board. Clean this one too, also look for rust in the surrounding metal, the point can rust soo bad as to not make a proper ground. Cover the connectors with lithium gease afterwards to seal them. New female connectors aren't a bad idea either.
