Hey guys, so I've already searched this and I cannot find my exact problem. From what I've found out everyone else says new bulbs or a new turn signal arm on the wheel. I have replaced both now and it still will not work. My drivers side front and rear work fine. Then when I go to the other side, it clicks really fast and the rear flash fast but my front still just stays on with out blinking. Since this is my first DSM, I was also wondering if the turn signals stay lit all of the time when the car is on, like running lights? Or is this just another problem I am having? :confused:
 
The connector for the bulb might be loose or no good try pushing the wires in a little more on the connector :thumb: If that doesn't work, you might just have to cut the connector off the other car and rewire it on there.
 
Double flashing in a turn signal means one half of the circuit has lower resistance, either from a bad blub, a short somewhere, or it happens often when people switch to L.E.D. type bulbs that have nearly no voltage draw. I would get a multi-meter and check the connector in question while you have the signal light on, and check for voltage.

When I get home I will check the voltage, although I think thats not the problem
 
Get a multi-meter on the housing and double check around the ground wire to make sure as well. You might want to check the fuse again with the meter to see if its blown but not blown to the eye. I had this issue with my wife's Beetle and it turned out to be that the housing shorted out. Snip snip and a little solder was all it took.
 
Alright thanks guys I will check those out when i got off work.

Another question, my dome lights, the light around my ignition, power windows, noises from leaving lights on or keys in, do not work? Any idea what this could be?:hmm:

Any help with these other electrical problems guys?
 
DID you ever get your right blinker problem fixed,

I am having the same issue in my 91 eagle talon, but both front and rear right blinkers are always on, including the green light in the instrument cluster. the hazzards work normal with the key off. but if you turn the hazzards on with the engine running, both right and left side stay on no blinking at all, and if you turn the vehicle off with the hazzards on the engine turns off and on with the blinking, along with alot of other stuff. its crazy and I dont know what to do next.

Hey guys this thread is a bit old but I am still having this problem? The passenger side turn signal just stays on extremely bright and will not flash? Can you guy point me to some grounds to check? Where are they, I have only found one and it looks fine. Any help guys? Please :cry:
