While I haven't totally dived into this yet into the car, prolly tues. There are a few electrical issues with the turn signals that are not working right. The left rear tail light flashes with the turn signal, not 100% but a little. and the right front turn signal doesn't work at all.

I don't think there is a grounding issue more like a junction or something that needs to be replaced, but is there any spot with these two that would cause issues like this?

There was a bulb in the tail light that wasn't supposed to be there it was like 21W in a 4W socket. I am sure that may have cause some over heating somewhere.

Ok I think I got this one figured out but I need a simple question answered

The round yellowish side marker lights on the front, are they supposed to blink with the turn signals? I think the car was wired wrong when the front clip was re attached. I see electrical tape all over the place and am thinking someone messed this up. When I disconnect the lights in the front all the ones in the rear work properly, so I know I have an issue with the wiring. I think I have this solved if the side marker lights in the front aren't supposed to blink.
