Last week, the front parking light assembly went walkabout from my 744 turbo. Lens, housing, bulb & bulb holder, everything. I got a replacement tuesday, along with a fresh light bulb. All seems to be working, except...

If the car is running, AND in motion, AND the right turn signal is on, AND the parking lights are on, I get a brief flash of the bulb-warning light in time with the turn signal repeater.

I can't make it happen with the car stopped, it doesn't happen with the parking lights off, it doesn't happen with just the brake lights or just the turn signal, and it doesn't happen with the left turn signal.

Before I lost the first assembly, all was fine.

The lights all work, but it's just really odd that this is happening, and I was wondering if anyone else has seen this.

Maybe I should just do a wholesale replacement of bulbs this weekend!
