View Full Version : Speed Blinkers

Standard set up: 3157 and 194 bulbs in front turn lights. 3157s in rear. Make a right turn, signal blinks normal. Make a left, and it flashes faster than the tits of a drunken sorority slut at Mardi Gras. But when I hit the hazards, they blink the same speed. I would guess the fuse, but since it controls both sides, and the right blinx normal, im stumped. Any clue as to what to do?

Are you sure one of the bulbs isn't burned out? Normally they blink fast to indicate that you have a burned out bulb.

yeah turn on the left blinker and check that all your bulbs on the left side are good

Yeah, all bulbs are go. And i forgot to add, the 194 bulbs (outer) don't blink or run at all during night time. This didn't start til the day after the rain storm we had. I mean the "trees-down, power-out-all-over-town" type storms. Maybe water got into a connection somewhere, but i have no idea where to look :unsure: .

look at all relays, fuses, and wiring that hasta do with those lights......start with the bulbs, the fuses, then relays.......last check the wiring........you can always do a continuity check, just get some extra wire and run from where the fuse is to the electrical connector to rule out bad wiring.......

my guess would be that you're starting to have the infamous hazard switch problems... if so, be prepared to replace it :thumbsup:

Got the hazard switch fixed last year, dirty. Along with the "dead" cruise control button.

i had this blinker problem when i put the 3157 LED's in the rear, try puttin normal bulbs in and see if this fixes the blinker problem.

I still had my warranty, so i took it the dealership. But all it was was one of the wires was faulty and they replaced it. Shouldn't be over 50 bux. Probably could get it done cheaper (or free) at a shop. It's a small problem.
And i found the blinker problem. One of my many "spliced" connections got some water and rusted apart. Just snipped the rust, rewired, and water-proofed the hell out of it. :thumbsup:
