well my cheap ass signals decided to fall apart internally. both front signals. so i took them completely apart and resolderd the contact points. worked good for an hour or so. tehn all the sudden when i put my left signals on they didnt work. the headlight would dim at the same rate the signals should blink and the indicator light would blink verrrry dim. would a bad solder, possibly causing a short, cause these symptoms?

Because your headlight also dims, it sounds like a partial short to ground of the 12V wire.
Do you get the same reaction on the right turn signal?

left side only. and it affects front and rear.
checked them when i got off work. in the bulb fixture thing there was a short. resoldered and it works.
