When the switch it out it doesn’t flash. That seems to mesh with what i’m seeing on the diagram though. Basically the switch shouldn’t flash while it’s out or else it would flash when ever you turn on your left blinker

It does flash while pressed.

yep, looks fine other than an obvious previous repair attempt. I moved all the wires around and checked them out, they are all shielded fine.

I think the relay wasn’t seated completely and when I hopped in the car to hit the switch it came loose or something. When I came back from dinner it was flashing again. The switch definitely is not affecting anything right now when I turn it on and off.
