Last week I posted to the list about a problematic front right turn signal.
I replaced the bulb, and all was well for a few days, but now the problem is
back - and worse.

The original post had to do with the fact that my right front signal, when
activated, was blinking on the dashboard twice as fast as normal. This, I
came to learn, is a trouble indicator to alert the driver that the light is
out. Now the outside signal light doesn't turn on or blink at all, and
neither does the dashboard indicator.

Things I noticed that might be germane: When I replaced the exterior signal
bulb, the yellow plastic housing was full of water, and the receptacle the
bulb rests in was consequently rusted; also, when testing the bulb to see if
the new one fixed the problem, I saw that when the signal was activated, the
dashboard illuminating lights (behind the speedometer, for instance) were
flashing. This was not the case when the other turn signal was activated.

No other lights (headlights, brake lights, etc.) seem to be affected. Can
anyone point out the gremlin?

Many thanks,
