If problem started after pump replacement, I would re-trace the steps on the new install to make sure everthing is properly aligned and adjusted.

I believe my 64 has two flashers, one for the turn signals mounted on driver side above steering column and one for the hazard flasher on the passenger side above the fuse panel. My car does have the convenience panel.

My 64 non a/c has low mounted alt.

disc brakes were first installed in 1965 from the factory.
