Rapid blinking turn light
Tuesday, April 29, 2008 10:52 AM
When I turn on my left turn signal the light blinks very fast, but my right turn signal is normal.

Any help on how to slow down my turn signal?

I had the same problem, check the bumper light, corner light and rear light.
I didn't realize the corner lights were turn signals, because they were both burned out when I got it.

None of my lights are out and my cluster's left turn signal is in rappid fire mode. I don't have LED tails either.

Front bumper left signal doesn't flash at all, but stays solid. The rear flashes crazy. The problem had happened before, but then went away a couple days later. Now it's back and annoying as hell. What else could it be?

the fluid is low. if you look under the hood, there is a spot on each side behind the lights you can fill back up with fluid. pep boys or any other store should have it.

If the bulbs are OK and replacing the relay doesn't work.... it could be a wiring problem.

The bumper light is supposed to blink.

Heres a clip I just did, showing the blinkers(front/rear left lights are out BTW).
CLICKY!


FYI I have my hazards on, which causes all the blinkers to go off(but you already knew that)

Josh:
My factory blink set up alternated bumper and corner lights with activated. Never seen them blink same time like that before.

Thrice:
I know the brown wired is for the parking mode and the blue wire handles the flashing. But you're saying you replaced that bulb and its still acting strange?

Have you guys done anything to tap into your elec system? I.E. sub boxes, after-market radios, etc.

How are you guys head/high beam lights?
I have a high beam go out on me and I got erratic flashing signals.

And all of the fuses are ok?

dude..there are 2 turn signal bulbs on each side in the front...whichever one is staying on means the other is blown...watch that vid above..the amber corners beside the headlights have a small bulb and the lens in the bumper has a bulb..on each side...(duh) if the one in the bumper is staying solid then replace the one beside the headlight...might even be a burnt socket
