Default Apply Brake - Loose Right Turn Signal

Bulbs are 1157s and work fine. Left turn signal and brake work fine. Right turn signal stops flashing and stays onwhen I apply brake. What the crap.............over..........

what happens if you apply the brake and bring the rpm's up a little bit?

Same thing, only lights are brighter. I probably need a voltage regulator. In the meantime I'd like to get the signal/brake issue fixed though. Any sugegstions?

I think a turn signal switch might be the culprit. My switch had a problem. Turns signals worked, but only one of the brake lights would work.

that, or a bad ground at the bulb itself. I saw this over and over when I worked at U-Hell.

my first instint would be the brake peddle interfering with the flasher ground. As you apply the brake, it sounds like you're pinching a ground wire. It can't be a power wire, becaue you're not blowing fuses.
My two cents....
