Scott, I had a similar problem on my '84. I also tried the same cleaning/checking/soldering exercise you did. Even soldered some external wire along the board. I now believe the problem with mine is the turn signal switch in the steering column. Why? 1) I have this problem only with right turn signa...

I use my '84 GTV 6 for occasional track days. I'd like to replace the 20+ year old seatbelts with new belts (not NOS belts). It is unclear whether Klippan the original manufacturer makes replacements. IAP couldn't help me out either. Any suggestions as to where to look? A brief web search revealed n...
