Polarity lights indicators questions...

Appreciate your reading.
355 Aft Cabin. Electrical panel. Two polarity indicators/lights; red green.
Couple of boat electricians came out...did some buss and wiring repairs. 2 separate companies.
Here's where they don't agree. One says the indicators should flicker green meaning correct connections. Other guy says no...should be solid bright green always and these indicators should be replaced...old and worn out.
Been looking for replacements to no avail. Great Lakes Skipper..none. West Marine none, Boat Owners Wearhouse none..da da da..wanted to buy the same ones...plug and play and no drilling a larger opening.
So.. should the green light flicker or be solid green?
If solid...then apparently a flickering green means...what...issues?? Possible causes? All ground wires replaced. All buss connections replaced. Any corroded wires replaced. No bonding issues apparently according to the electricians.
Appreciate your thoughts and leads where to buy...
