Here is my situation: former owner took off rear turn signals but left the wiring and the flasher unit, which seems to work ok after testing it.  Front turn signals were hack-sawed off but wiring is still there as far as I know. When I flip the turn signal switch, the lights on the console light up but don't flash; they just stay illuminated until I flip the turn switch off.  Here's the question: If I put on a new set of rear signals, will they flash ok?  I am not sure how the console light tie in to the mix as far as not blinking.....in other words, if they don't blink now, will they blink with the new signals or does it not matter....will the signals work anyway?

Thanks in advance for the input!
