Light question

When I painted the dash and interior, I cleaned the gauges and re painted the needles. After installing everything back my turn signals light up when I turn on the head lights. Also when the lights are on the turn signals do not work. They work fine when lights are off.
Any suggestions?

Re: Light question

Is this on the 67-72 GMC? I would probably guess there is something wrong with the circuit board on the back. Beyond that I would think there is an issue with the light switch.

Re: Light question

Check your grounds. Paint is a good insulator at inoportune times.
