[Vwdiesel] Left turn signal

[James Hansen]

yeah, and it may just be a poor ground that has insufficient capacity to run
both lights.  The flasher speeds up when it flows less current... like Loren
suggests, may just be a circuit track oxidized most of the way through or
something.

  I'd have to dig out a wiring diagram to get real specific but check the
turn bulbs on that side, sounds like one might be burned out.  Then
again with the change from stepping on the brakes indicates the
brakes or ts's are drawing their ground through the other bulb so check
the ground/s to that side's rear first then the front.  Most are a plug to a
galvanized sheet metal "circuit board."  That connection is often just
cruddy enough to prevent a good ground.  The grounds are common
between at least some of the bulbs so it draws a ground THROUGH
the other bulb until power is supplied to it.  :-o
