Windshield wipers, left blinker won't work when headlights are on

I have a 1996 Lt1 camaro

The weirdest thing started to happen, When I turn the headlights on the windshield wipers kinda die down to a complete stand-still. Also the left blinker stays lighted up on the dash and does not blink.. The right blinker works just fine though.

Also, the left headlight turns on but very dim... It seems like it's an electrical problem that is connected to the headlights, blinker and windshield wiper motor.

Anybody got some advice on where I can start?

Thanks

The exact same thing is happening to mine. Dim driver side headlights, driver blinker stuck not blinking and wipers go off when I turn on headlights. Which ground wire was it to try to save me some time?? Lol

The driver side headlights and front turn signals ground to G106, a black wire attached to the upper radiator support, driver side. Right lights ground to G105, same support, passenger side.
