Aftermarket Tail Lamps, Turn Signal Issues

Hello,

I have an odd-ball kind of question for anyone. I've been working on getting my turn signals to work on my 1962. It has a Braden aftermarket bumper from 1960s that I had to tear out the old lights and replace with LEDs.

After tearing apart the wiring and looking at wiring diagrams, I've got the lights to work, but not how they are supposed to.

Here's what I mean. Moving the switch to the driver's side turn signal causes the front AND rear lights to come on. The front flashes, the flasher cube clicks and the rear turns on and stays solid. Moving the switch the middle causes both rear lights to come on and stay solid. Moving the switch to the passenger side causes the rear light to come on and stay solid. I don't have a front bulb in the passenger side at the moment. The flasher cube doesn't click on this position.

I've checked and I have constant power to the switch for the white wire and both wires from the rear tail lights, but no power for the front lights until I move the switch. I can't for the life of me figure out why that is. Those rear lights should work the same as the front.

The rear brake lights work perfectly (tail and pushing in the brake).

New parts - light switch, brake switch, turn signal switch, flasher cube, fuses and wiring from cab to the rear lights.

I've checked the wires to the starter switch. They are all tight.

Thoughts?
