Subject:Electrical Mystery solved

Hi folks,

        So, my signal flashers were acting strange on my 85.  Sometimes working normally, sometimes fast, sometimes not at all. This started a month ago.

On a long trip with a friend, a new VW bus owner.  He solved the problem. 

Hint, he noticed that if he tapped the fuse box the signal behavior would change.  Sometimes start to work normally or just different from the status.

So any thought on what was wrong? 

Before it was fixed we had several experienced folks make suggestions but the new guy solved it. . 

Any brave folks want to take a guess?
