Default 91 crx turn signal problems. .

I was checking up on my car Friday night when I had it in the shop I notice that
I turn my RIGHT signal on and my LEFT front upper corner also comes on or flashes like normal. Normal speed not fast. Just as I was going to make a left turn only Iam turning right.

This only does this on right. When I select left signal light it opperates normal. The right side does not come on like it should. Iam thinking its the combantion switch. I tried to get it to act up again by switching high beams low beams left right turns, hazzards etc. It only happens when the headlights are turned on. When the headlights are off the turn signals act like they should.

The bumper turn signals opperate like normal when the left or right signal is selected regarless if the headlights are on or off. Its only on the fender turn signal and only on the left turn signal. I hope iam not confusing anyone.

I have checked for bulb fitment, right bulb sizes, correct fuses, connector on the turn signal, I don't really have a reasonable explanation for why it would be the combo switch causing this. Anyone want to help me out?

If they don't answer back, it's 'cuz Nobody likes the tough electrical ones!
I would track it down by tracing the electrical path with a probe into the wires, The engineers probably have the same wiring theory for the left side as for the right side. Start tracing, and Whatever is hot at a certain point on one side of the car should be hot on the other side of the car at that same point.
Same thing for grounds, when testing side to side.
.......sooooo, if one side is working, that tells you what/where the other side should have the same results, and be working too.

Sometimes engineers will use a wire as a ground under some conditions
and a hot wire under other conditions.....I have seen this on some cars headlights. Whatever switches it from ground to hot is probably not doing so
*IF* that is being used on your particular car. Keep us posted.-Bob
