    Don't know if it's a PACCAR family defect, but I had a 680 KW with a similar issue, not sure if they're anything alike, but mine was in the wiring harness behind the bumper. There is a connector that t's off to each side of the truck...the connector corrodes.

    Wiring down around hood hinge
    Wiring back of headlights
    light sockets corroded
    Turn signal and marker light just shake to pieces.

    Defective switch. Did you check to see if the signal to the lights is actually leaving the switch?
