Check all the bulbs and make sure they are EXACTLY what the manual calls for. I see many problems of this. Many times someone has accidently put in the wrong one. Like a 1157 for a 2057. Same base and contacts but different amp draw. Can burn up flashers or will not draw enough amps to make the flasher "pop" and it will just stay on. I have seen fillaments that broke loose in the bulb and shorted against the other one intermittently and can really baffle you. I dont know about your exact model but the 90's model chevy trucks are notorious for tail lamp bulb sockets going bad and causing similar problems. And of course the first thing I always do is check the grounds. More times than not I find automotive elecric problems caused by poor grounds. Good luck David
