Just heads up, I had issues with grounds in mine and the reason was that water was getting in the housing. I noticed that the drain hole on the housing was pointed up. Yours were the same way. I cleaned the corrosion in mine put a new bulb in and flipped it around so the drain is on the bottom now and it’s been working fine now.
Thanks for your comment. i noticed the drain holes and the new assemblies were installed with the drain holes down. The old turn signals were shot. The corrosion in the socket was beyond repair. take care.
Hi - thanks so much for this - looks easy until you run into the gremlins! watched your vid a couple of times and avoided a few problems. replaced one of the lights with a Crown replacement (new bulb wouldnt go into old housing - so i just got a new unit). Now - directional works with headlights off or on - but it is not lit up when the headlights are on. any ideas? 78 CJ7, 401, EFI . Thanks!!
Bought my 77 CJ found turn signals installed backwards, thanks for the info.
Thanks for the video. I just purchased a 1980 CJ an I'm sure I'll be replacing the same stuff.
Thank you and good luck with your CJ7. Mine is an ol' beater but i do like it.

Did you have to switch the wires on both sides?
