Bad blinker works on the good side...does the good blinker work on the 'bad' side?

Front blinkers both work as designed?

Sounds like you have a wiring issue in the tail. Have you had it off for any reason?

AFAIK, the cluster has a L channel and a R channel for turn signals, not four channels (LF, RF, RR, LR). If the fronts are working, it's a wire somewhere to the tail.

And for the record - yes, the cluster runs the signals on the 1125. There is no "flasher".

the wires from the left rear are not flashing. it just has a continous power supply. both fronts are working as is the right rear.

Check the right rear. I'm not familiar with the circuit - does the working signal cut the ground to flash it? (continuity test from ground lead to chassis ground; you should get a continuity "flash" if that's how the circuit works, a VOM that beeps for continuity makes this easy-peasy to check).

Maybe left rear ground lead is...grounded out to the chassis somewhere.
