I'm not entirely sure what's going on, my e-mail client (M$ Outlook) seems
to be as confused as I am.
However, please note that my original post (which I didn't think I was
posting to the list) was incorrect, as kindly pointed out by Andy Mace
(Thanks Andy !!). The corrected info is below.

Subject: RE: TR3 turn signal problem (one side only)
Dave :
Before disassembling the head (which isn't all that hard, I just had mine
apart last month), try switching the wires so that the RH turn signals are
connected to the LH switch connection.
There are 4 wires, in a harness, that run from the head down the inside of
the column, out the end of the steering box, and up to the area just behind
the horn on the driver's side. The heavy brown with black wire
is the horn. The wire to the RH lamps is green with white, and goes into a
4-way connector, with one wire running back forward to the turn signals.
The wire to the LH lamps is green with red, and also goes into
a 4-way connector. The wire to the flasher is green with brown, and goes
into a 2-way connector.
Once you've identified the wires, disconnect the RH lamp wire from the
4-way connector, and connect the LH lamp wire to the RH 4-way connector.
Now try setting the TS switch to the LH position (ign on). If the RH
lights don't flash, the problem has to be in either the wires to the head,
or the head itself. If they do, then the problem is in the wires to the
lamps, or the lamps.
Hope that's clear, let me know if it's not.
