Re: Electrical Problem
corroded light socket or poor ground. Make sure the affected light assemblies are grounded to the body and the body is grounded to frame. Poor grounds will give you fits in these old trucks.

Re: Electrical Problem
There is your problem. The flasher requires a minimum current draw to flash and with your parking light eliminated and tail lights "on", the current available is insufficient to operate the flasher. Get a new parking light and your problem should be solved.
