Electrical help!!!
Hey guys i need some help with my 71 f250. Specificly the turn signals/ flashers. My problem is that whenever i turn my left turn signal on my flashers turn on.
Ive done alot of electrical work on this truck and this is the only remaining problem i know of. Anyone know what my problem could be?
Thanks for the help!

Yes take it to an automotive electrical specialty shop.
Unless you have the skills or experience to mess with the job bite the bullet and have an expert do the work.
As you asked about doing it I assume that you are not at the skill level to attack this job.

Sometimes there are no shortcuts but take this opportunity to learn how to do it yourself.
A couple of threads below to understand how to do it, what you may encounter and maybe a source of motivation. :

Here's a YouTube video for an early Mustang but it is the same in principle. I prefer to fish a nylon cord up the column when removing the old switch and use it to to pull the new wires down the steering column.
