Turn Signal Problem

JSchlenk91 · 03-08-2011, 01:51 PM

I have a 97 Buick Century Custom and I have am having problems getting the passenger side front turn signal to work. I have replaced the bulb, checked the fuse, checked/replaced the socket and tested the voltage to everything. The rear does work however. I am honestly just running out of ideas and anything would be highly appreciated. Thanks

do you have it grounded good? i don't know if trying a new flasher just a thought and it also could be in the turn signal switch it'self? by chance do you have the VAT'S SYSTOM IN THAT?

I believe that it is grounded good and yes it does have the VATS system. I have thought about replacing the flasher. I recently just switched my left side with the right side and it works fine so atleast I know that its not the socket.

I just replaced the flasher and now the signal display in the dash flashes normally and so does the rear signal however the front still does not blink at all.

I had same problem with 97 Deville. I removed and cleaned ground cables on the battery and the signal light worked.

I had a 96 with similar problem.
There was a socket that hooked/unhooked from harness.
Something to check.
