Quoted from Valorguy:what could I do to remedy the situation, since this would mean that there is constant power coming from the board to "activate" that flasher constantly?
There is always constant power to all coils and flashers in order to activate them. It's the transistor on the power driver that grounds the device to complete the circuit to ground. If it's not a chaffed wire or flasher lug touching metal, it's 99% a shorted drive transistor. You'll need to use a DMM on diode setting to test the transistor in question to see if it's bad. Then remove the power driver board and replace the faulty transistor.
