78 f150 dim drivers side front lights

Wiring gremlin? Did she have a stroke? Effecting drivers side only

Drivers side head light and marker turn signal issue
Driver side headlights and markers are dim
drivers side turn signal won’t work with headlights on works fine with them off

if highbeam switch is activated driver side turn signal indicator on dash lighs solid even though the stalk is not set on turn left

everything both sides of rear are working fine no issues

i can make videos etc. anyone have ideas

Ground sounds defective.
Left head light and left front marker and left front park / signal share the same ground.
Right side same with their own separate ground.
