Glad you fixed it, Mikko. A proper repair can come later. First hurdle is registration, then from then on it's just tinkering! Have fun.
Mart.

I had the same problem, turned out to be the ground!

"Mikko" - Please let us know how the inspection and registration turns out.

Hopefully, there will be a avorable result.

I found out that some foreign bulbs do not have a filament large enough to activate the Flasher.
Talk about something that will drive you nuts with intermittent operation

Today was the day for inspection and it went well so now I just have to wait for the title and plates to arrive by mail.

The left brake light stopped working during the inspection but they looked the other way and decided that it was no big deal.

The left rear turn signal still works, and the right brake light so I'm thinking there must be something with the turn signal switch now.
