I have a 62 I just got not long ago. The turn signals weren't working at all so we ended up replacing the relay and the switch. Now when I turn the ignition on the turn signals work fine,  however when I start my engine I get nothing.  No lights at all when I switch on my turn signals.  Where should I start looking first to fix this? If they work with the engine off why won't they when it's running?  I'm lost

I have always heard that you should get about 13.8-14max, so I'd say the 16-17 is too high. I would check that. For the sake of experimenting, disconnect the signal wire from the generator/VR to prevent it from charging (or somehow disable the generator charging system) and see if they work. If they do, then you will have narrowed it down, if not, then keep looking, but figure out why you have 16+ volts!!!
