Peugeot 306 flashing rear and front lights after indicating left and opening the door

Car: Peugeot 306
Variant: 1.4 automatic
Model Year: 1996
Categories: Leaks & Noises
Car is old, but she drives fine in every way except that every if I am indicating right my break lights and headlights start flashing, and a loud ticking noise comes on, none of my stop lights do though.they also do this when the door is opening and just after closing even when engine is off. The garage repaired a faulty bulb in my left light headlight and took a look at all the earth switches and polished them, the say it's a possible electrical shortage somewhere else in the car, when the removed the rear right light there was quite a bit of water inside. They checked door seals and panels and there is no leaking in the car, she has 6 months mot and tax, does anyone have any idea what this could be and if so how much it will be to fix?? Wanna know if it is worth it for another 6 months or with to invest in something else now.

its go to be a bad earth somewhere, try checking the earths in the rear
Lights first for a good body connection, also you could just adding some fresh earths to the lights yourself and see if they help or solve the issue, when its all going haywire try using a piece of wire attached to earth and touching the various connection earths to see if it stops.
