I've looked in the threads and can't seem to find this anywhere. Which of these lights should shine/blink when?

Same with front turn signal lights - Are they supposed to be dual element bulbs that shine when the lights are on and blink when the turn signal is on?

Right = Reverse
Center = park & brake (dual element)
Left = turn
far left = running light.

Hanks. The left and center alternate blinking when the turn signal is on. So I'm trying to figure it out.

You have a ground issue. The center is brake/running light and should not be affected by the turnsignal (left). Check the ground wire on the bucket.

Was this always happening or did you change something?
