Every time I apply the brakes, the right turn signal comes on. I've tried to track it down, but no luck so far. Anyone got an idea?

This happens on my chevy truck (1970) every now and then. I have a hazard switch with the little red button broken off, and every now and then it cuts in-only partially (not enough to engage the flasher). It settles in due to vibrations, and never completely.

So I just pull it back out using a small screwdriver. Though on mine, both turn signals come on when this happens (as I apply the brakes).

Good to hear. I was curious to see if had indeed isolated the real problem with mine.
