my 86 does the same thing. i'm thinking about just hooking up a switch and running my lights off of a relay straight from the battery. (cause i'm lazy and that's easy

)

its the turn signal switch. mine did the exact same thing. i got a new switch of a lx parts car and it works better then ever. and looks better too. mine was turning yellow.

try to find a good used one if you can because they are not cheap parts new.

i was thinking about going the route of just wiring it myself because i've had trouble locating a turn signal switch for my car. the 87+ are a little easier to find. and like you said, they aren't cheap new.
