Check headlamp grounds, black wire. If problem with headlamp ground, it may try to ground through the turn circuit? Just my opinion.

It's the cheezy american bulb receptacle---the ground rots off, which then causes the turn signal indicator on the dash to light continuously when the headlights are on. Replace the receptacle with a new one and the problem will disappear.
