I have to think the problem is inside the turn signal switch, a poor internal connection. You know the brake signal first goes through the turn switch before it goes to the bulbs. That is why the brake lights and rear turn signal lights share the same filament in the bulb, and the same wire going to those lights. The only difference is the turning side light is affected by the turn signal flasher, causing blinking, while the other side- the non turning side-does not go through the flasher relay, but straight to the bulb from the turn signal switch. Change your turn signal switch and I believe you will solve the problem. Let me know, okay?
Check the main battery connections first. Battery possibly dead from age or defective charging system. Possibly also bad battery cable to chassis or main fuse box.
Remove the head light (2 bolts on top edge of light) to gain access to the back side mounting nut on turn siganal lamp, remove the nut and then remove the mounting screw on the outside of the signal light, remove the bulb socket and remove light.
Recheck ALL the wiring, check the brake light switch and signal switch. Either on could have gone bad due to its age. Them suspect the controller for the lights. What do the 4 ways do? I think I would be suspecting the signal switch.
