Turn signals and headlights messed up

Hey guys, On my 1987 iroc z, the left turn signal works fine, but the right turn signal when i switch it on just stays solid. Also, While just having the normal running lights on, the passenger side low beam and turn signal bulb are super dim, While the driver side low beam is normal, turn signal is normal, but the high beam is slightly illuminated. Would this be the turn signal switch or the flasher? i don’t want to start taking stuff apart without a second opinion. i have a picture of the issue attached below

It is most likely a wiring issue under the hood. The left & right hand lights receive power from the same switch contacts. Split between park & headlights (of course).

The grounds for those are split between the two sides. That is where I would start.
