1968 cougar all tail lights and break lights work but no right side blinkers
All new Sequential upgrade and new blinker switch installed
Thank you for any help in advance
I don’t know if this will help.
But I had a simular problem with my left blinker. I had a wire that might not have good contact and I might have kicked it with my foot.
Played with the wires and my blinker started working.
First, with the turn signal lever in the right position, check the orange/green stripe wire entering the control unit in the trunk for 12V power.
Then check the violet wire.
Ok yes I have power on the orange cable with the green stripe, but no power on the purple wire

I’m sure it’s wired correct
I believe
The problem is the missing 12V signal on the (441) violet wire. It tells the controller to flash the RH turn signal. The problem is either in the wire/connectors along the circuitous path for this wire or the turn signal switch.
First try plugging/unplugging the 10-pin half-moon turn signal switch connector. Make sure the pins are seated fully and not pushing out the back-side of the connector.
Check the (2) white/blue wire on the switch side of the half-moon connector for 12V (while plugged in). If this power is missing, the switch may be bad. You can usually stick a thin test light probe alongside the wire from the backside of the connector down to the metal pin.
Then check the matching violet wire on the car harness side of the turn signal switch connector. If it has 12V power, the problem is in either the 2-pin connector at the LH rear wheelhouse, the 3-pin connector above the RH kick panel or in the wire path. This wire is in the RH taillight harness that travels across under the rear deck, over the RH wheelhouse, under the RH door sill to the RH front kick panel and plugs into the main under-dash harness.

The turn signal switch is new, but I will try all of this this afternoon. Thank you, Vic.
The violet wire marked at the bottom of the picture is correct.
So cable running from RH glove box to trunk test good
Losing power from half moon plug to glove box ; So that is the wire from back side of White/ blue wire at half moon plug
14 months to save this Beauty from the grave
Again thanks for all your help and
for all of WCCC personnel and help along the way

Update BIG shout out to Vic at Cougars unlimited; after have me test several cables we found the issue and all lights and blinkers working GREAT now
THANKS AGAIN
Let us know what the issue was, and how you solved it. Doing so, may help others with the same issue.
So the white/blue wire at half moon had power but was losing it between their and the RH kick panel plug ; so I ran a jumper cable from half moon plug to RH kick panel plug and everything is working
