I have a problem with my turn signal lights
I've been having the weirdest problem today...my passenger side turn signal lights don't really want to turn off! I've got an '03 VIII with 70k on it and this is the first time I've seen this happen. When I flip the turn signal the light on the dash blinks a couple times like it normally should and then suddenly stays lit up constantly. I thought maybe the cluster was acting weird, but it's not...when the light stays lit on the dash all the passenger side turn signal lights stay lit constantly. Sometimes they'll go out on their own, sometimes they stay on for quite a while, and other times it seems to work just fine. All the fuses/bulbs seem to be fine, and the strange thing is even when the lights are lit you can hear the relay clicking and the lights get just a hair brighter. Normally I'd say it's a short, but I haven't been able to find one anywhere in the wiring. It did rain like all hell today (5" so far) so hopefully it's just something funky with all the water.
Has anyone had any issues like this before though?

I'm almost 100% sure it's those connectors. I popped the kick panel off to look at them and most of the connectors are so corroded I couldn't even pull them out. I wiggled the one set when the lights were stuck on and sure enough it started working normally again. I wonder if some electrical anti-corrosion spray might take care of it and then pack it full of dielectric grease.
