right turn signal/brake lights

Post by fmfdoc68 »

Alright guys,
I'm a complete idiot when it comes to wiring in any type of vehicle, much less one that's a year older than I am. I've got a '68 F250 with a 360 and factory air. (Not sure if that matters) I just recently stripped a bunch of wires out of the cab that weren't connected to anything and I started having a bit of an issue right after that. If I put the fuse in that corresponds to the brake lights, my right turn signal flashes really rapidly, except it only flashes on the front of the truck, the rear turn signal does not. It doesn't make any difference if I turn the selector to the right, it continues to flash at the same pace. If I turn the truck off and remove the key, the right turn signal still flashes. The only way I can get it to stop flashing is if I take the brake fuse out, but then I don't have any brake lights. Any ideas?
