On my right headlight it doesn't want to light up, but when I put my hazards on it does. :confused: My first guess for it not working is it's not connected right, when I turn my right blinker on it goes crazy fast, the indicator, not the coner light. I remember my friend telling me if you d/c a bulb it will make the tail light blink faster, so that's what makes me assume it's just a loose bulb, but what throws me off is it turns on when hazards are activated. Anyone wanna throw something in?
 
If the bulb is burned out, the indicator will blink twice as fast as sort of a reminder that it's burned out. I would check your turn signal switch and see if something is wrong there. Are you sure it's the same lightbulb. Does the back do the same?
 
Just checked, tail light blinks fast but front corner light doesn't light up at all. Why does it though when hazards are on? I'm gonna check the bulb to see if it's in the socket all the way.
 
I would check the wiring going to it as well. See if there is an open in one of the wires.
 
I'm pretty sure it is a bad bulb or loose socket. Same thing happened to me. Right blinker would be hella fast, but would be normal when I put the hazards on. Changed the bulb and it went away. That'd be the first thing I'd check
 
Im having the same problem, both of my turn signals up front dont blink, but the dash blinker blinks hella fast and the rear does the same... ive changed the relay and the bulbs and nothing, im so clueless...
 
I have the same problem right now. I tried to fix it a while ago and it worked for a while. But now it's going fast again. I found out that one of the wires leading to the turn signal socket was loose and not fitting in the socket right. So when i get a chance, I'm going to tear apart the socket and re-solder everyting.
