Re: Turn signal indicator light

["64ragtop@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <64ragtop@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Paul,

It occurs to me that one of the socket adapters that the bulb goes into 
might have a wider negative terminal

that would contact both of the negative contacts on the circuit board 
when it was inserted.  I haven't seen

such, but somehow the grounds (both of them) must get to the bulb.   
Maybe an inspection of those adapters

would find one with a wider negative contact.  Good luck!
