Well I'm stumped and frustrated. The left front corner lamp lights up as a parking light, but not as a blinker. I changed the bulb, nothing. I changed the headlight wiring harness, nothing. Why could this be happening? A poor ground for the turn signal? How would I even remedy that??

I like Project Farm and trust his results, with one caveat... if I were paying full price for Kroil then it would definitely sway my decision, however every time I have ever ordered any Kreen they have always sent me a can of Kroil for "free" and I have to say it is some really good stuff.
I have an old engine hoist/cherry picker that had been sitting out in my backyard for many years with the heavy cast rollers/casters buried in the sand. When I finally needed it the casters were rusted and seized. I layed it over on it's back and got as much dirt and sand off as I could and then sprayed them down with Kroil and let them sit for a few minutes. I then smacked them with a hammer and sprayed them again. They freed up and rolled like new. I was truly surprised as I didn't really expect them to be usable again.

Ok now I feel like an idiot. I checked all the fuses yesterday and didn't see one specifically for the left turn signal. I checked it just now (thanks to your suggestion) and saw it was partially burned. Switched it out and I'm back in action. Sorry to bother everyone for such a stupid thing!

No worries... it gets a lot of people.... glad you figured it out.
The older vehicles didn't have separate fuses for left and right turns usually.
edit nevermind, lol

That's exactly what I did. They came right out. I was able to get them out and in with a 22mm open end wrench. But it was an ordeal to snake the wrench in there with enough room to move it. I need to get me one of them socket thingies.

Can't fix stupid
i have a mapp gas plumbers torch, works great for things like that.
Gets hot enough to get a mild glow on the exhaust.
Old trick i use to do was to do a short sprint on the freeway for like 10min.
Then jump under there and pop the o2 sensors loose/off.
Trick there was to get some good load, load being the important part for them getting actually hot.

Pics or...
The operation was a success and the patient is resting comfortably with four new O2 sensors.
No big glitches I did use the aerosol kroil on top of the WD40 and the pipes on both sides of the cats were hot when applied. Frankly, the clips and push fasteners were as much fiddling as removing the sensors themselves.
The new sensors came with anti-seize on the threads and I chased each bung’s thread with a little adapter that came with my cheapo sensor socket set, so hopefully when the time comes and they need replacing again (which I assume will be sooner than this go around), it will be similarly painless. Actually the biggest pain was the sand getting knocked off the frame and falling into my eyes. I know, I know, safety glasses...
That is all...

Yeah man good job!!
The heck with that. Get that patient out and doing some physical therapy!
That is the way nowadays. Get 'em up and running, no laying around grabbing at the nurses.

Some will, some wont. Some, do and some don’t. So, you gotta ask them all.
