Does the van have wiring for a towing wiring harness?  If so rip it out and
your problems will vanish.

Subject: Pre-state insepction repair - somewhat URGENT

Alright, I'm running out of days in Sept and booked a MD state inspection
for tomorrow. My assistant was riding behind my 90 Carat today and noticed
that when I put on the right turn signal, both reverse lights flashed in
addition to the turn signal lamp. Left turn signal flashes only the turn
signal lamp. Transmission in reverse does not turn on reverse lights. The
questions:

1. Ground?
2. Reverse switch?
3. Should it fail inspection for such a charming fault?

Cheers,
