    Turn Signal Problem

    the left turn signals work fine. when i move the lever up for right first the right indicator on the tach flashes and then both indicators flash and keep flashing. the front right turn signal bulb flashes but the right rear does not. the right rear bulb is fine and all of the fuses appear to be as well. when i turn on the hazards all lights flash except the right rear.

    any ideas? i was thinking the turn signal switch but could that effect the hazards operation?

    turn signal problem

    Take the right rear bulb out, then try to lift the copper connector in the bulb housing a little up with a small screwdriver. This one probably makes no contact with the tip of light bulb.

    good luck, Cees

    That did the trick! Thanks a million. That would have taken me a long time to find.

    The flashing of both dash indicators is a way of telling you that a bulb is out. Some cars do both indicators, some do a more rapid flashing.

    Air goes in and out, blood goes round and round, any variation of this is a bad thing.
