    Yep. Once I put the cheapo new flashers in it all started working. And these only had load and power, no ground wire. So hopefully they are not running all the time like I think the ones with their own ground wire was

    took a break on the shower install and messed with the maverick.
    the selector cable on my B&M shifter has been sticking so I tore it down to replace it. also noticed the bulb for the indicator was missing. I think I have a 194 laying around somewhere.
