I've tried searching on the archives but never have much luck so here
goes... I'm trying to solve a headlight/turn signal mystery on my 87
westy.  When the low beams are on, the passenger side appears somewhat
"yellow" while the drivers side burns fine.  When I switch on the
highbeams, the drivers side is normal but the passenger side high beam
does not come on at all and the high inside the low beam bulb just gets
even "yellower".  Add to this a turn signal problem that may be
related?: my left turn signal blinks fast, right normal, but right will
not blink at all when lights are on (park or headlights) and the left
bulb has both filaments burning (turn and indicator) when lights are on.
So far I've changed out all of the turn signal bulbs, one badly corroded
socket, all of the headlight bulbs, headlight switch, and added
headlight relays.  No change in either condition.  I also dropped the
fuse panel and cleaned every ground on the two star grounds, cleaned
behind them to bare metal, and replaced any connectors that were
corroded, still no change.  I'm going to try a new turn signal switch
next but I'm getting tired of buying parts.  Looking for any other
suggestions from those that have walked before me, thanks.
