My left blinker has been blinkin fast ever since i got the car..i went out n baught all new lights for the back light... changed all 3 bulbs n the frekkin thing is still blinkin fast...i prolly sound like a moron but what else could it be??

yeah...with all the problems ive been having with my car lately i just wanna kick it!! when i took all the bulbs out of the hole n changed them they all worked but then i put them all back in their slots n then they start blinkin fast! im used to a fast blinker cause my aftermarket ones did that on my last car, but i cant stand when like old people pull beside me n say "ur tail lights out ya know!" $%^& lol

[xavier3jr]

lmao yea it looks like the cent light is out when you brake or put your turn signal on in the day but it looks badass at night ill trade u a good one for your bad one i want both of mine to do it lol and i cant figure out for shit what make it do it. because like you said it only does it when there in the slots it wont do it out of them they work normaly....oh well another DSM secret we shael never know lol

My car has the same exact problem. Sometimes it will work and then other times it doesn't. But, yeah the blinker blinks really fast and the tail light looks like it goes back in forth (alternates) in lights. I replaced the bulb with a brand new one. I am thinking it is either a connection problem or wireing problem. I have also heard the relays can go bad.

Go to Valvoline or whatever and have them do a flush and fill on your blinker fluid. Not having enough fluid or not changing it every 30k like you are supposed to can degrade the quality of the fluid and cause an irregular blinking. They should be able to get it fixed in like 10 minutes, that would be a good time to get the oil changed on your car and probably check the tranny fluid too.

The lights are supposed to blink faster when there is not a complete circuit (i.e. a bulb is burned out) to let the driver know they have a bulb out, i bet there is a loose wire somewhere, probably the harness that connects to the light.

[EclipseGurl319]

*Sigh* i hope its not the wiring, n what the hell is Vavoline??... i really dont wanna have to take it to ne one, if ne thing id annoy my brother hes a mechanic but thats my last resort...i bother him too much lol I just thought id be sumin stupid and easy

LOl couple year ago, some one post a link, where you can buy blinker fluid . I alway though it was a joke.

[EclipseGurl319]

I never even knew that blinders needed fluid i thought it was just a bulb that blinked...?? maybe i should just shut up before i make myself look stupider

DING DING DING ....... we have a winner.




EZ said it right, incomplete circuit causes faster blinking. Are all of your blinkers blinking? On all four corners of the car?

that was pretty shallow
