Blinker problems fixed!

Turn signal problem.
Here’s what’s going on:
1) No Front Lf signal but works on the cluster and the rear.
2) Rt signal works Front and Rear but not on the cluster.

Changed Blinker SW (it had a crack)but didn’t help.

Signal SW Connector flashes test light where it should. So I should have power for everything to work.

Bulbs are all good.

I’m about to check the inside “front extension connector”



****Here’s what I figured out. ****
2 problems:
1) blade connector was pushed out at the firewall.
— this is the power for the outside bulb.
2) the bulb socket was loose around the front lf bulb.
—this supplies ground to both the outside bulb and the bulb in the cluster.
This is a 1963 so it only has 1 turn signal indicator in the cluster. The bulb in the cluster doesn’t ground at the cluster, it apparently uses the ground from the opposite turn signal on the hood.
