So this is inside the column or the wires at the bottom wire harness? I did find a work around, I put some wire on the flasher and switched the wires opposite and it works. I can pull the wiring harness box off the firewall and switch the wires but it is a pain. I would like to fix it right so I dont have to have wires on the flasher.
