Did you figure this out? Not really sure what you mean. I changed all my bulbs today without issue

My 70 uses standard 1157 bulbs. Post a picture of the socket, maybe someone will have an idea of what's going on.

So now my head lights aren’t working after install of the turn signal bulb. They were working previously and I know I have power. Any suggestions?
