Post Any ideas?

As I've written before, I'm doing battle with an electrical short in my left blinker that fries the fuse immediately. As suggested, I checked behind the bulb, and all the wires look secure and properly connected, plus the parking lights work fine. Where else should I look at this point? Any ideas would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Remove the bulb front and rear and see if it blows the fuse. Then put one bulb in and try it. If it blows the fuse you will at least know which end the car is causing the problem.

Thanks. The rear blinker does flash. There are separate fuses for each.

What kind of car do you have?

Here's the wiring diagram for an 82SC

I assume it's fuse 10 that's burning out. There's not much wiring there. Connector T1B should be behind the fuse box. Try to find it and work from there.

You might have a short in the light socket.
