There are plenty of things to check, and I'll let others jump in re:
those other things. My first thought, though, is to check the
turn-signal (t-s) sockets for corrosion. I have a similar problem on
my '85 5ks due to a thoroughly corroded right front t-s socket. I
ordered one from Carlsen and, assuming Linda's shipping me the right
part, it's only costing me $2 plus S&H - and from an Audi dealer,
even!
