Blinkers Stuck?

**Eric1987** · 10-29-2008, 05:26 PM

So I noticed today in my dash the blinkers dont blink anymore. They just stay on when I turn right or left on. They work still but it just doesnt blink inside or outside the car. They just stay stuck on.

burnt out bulb?

**Eric1987** · 10-29-2008, 07:57 PM

The lights on the car works perfectly fine. I made sure they are all working.

This happened to me last week, the right turn signal stayed "on" both inside and outside the car. I was confused because the light was still on, but not blinking.

I went ahead and replaced the turn signal bulb and it fixed it.

bulb is out. change it...

It's a warning that the bulb is going out.

I think when it's constantly on it's the front bulb and when it flashes rapidly it's the rear? Not sure on that though...

Not a warning a bulb is burnt out. It won't ever flash fast, the just stay on when a bulb is out so check both front and rear, likely its the front bulb though as it is a dual filament bulb.

**Eric1987** · 10-30-2008, 09:54 AM

So which is out? The light in the front or the rear? And which side?

youre making it harder than it has to be. flip the turn signal indicator and get out of your car and take a look at the front and the rear. repeat if/as necessary. its called process of elimination...

**Eric1987** · 10-30-2008, 11:30 AM

But they work. Both the front and back stay on they just dont blink. So I replace both of them?

**SSwt00SS** · 10-30-2008, 11:37 AM

make sure you dont have your parking lights on. just turn the key to the accessories on position. one of the bulbs has to be out. check your brake lights as well...

another thing, have you checked your turn signal indicator fuse then?

**Eric1987** · 10-30-2008, 11:38 AM

No I havent checked that. How do I find out which fuse it is. And no lights are out at all. I double checked the other day. They just stay stuck on.

**SSwt00SS** · 10-30-2008, 12:01 PM

you have to remove the lower dash panel under the steering wheel. the fuse (which is circular about the size of a half dollar and about 1/2" or so thick) should be on the right hand side. you wont be able to see it directly, so you will have to feel for it. its a cheap part to fix. however if it turns out not to be that, then i dont know what to tell you...

**'99 SLP#24** · 10-30-2008, 12:11 PM

I still say bulbs replace both front ones I bet it will work. I'm almost willing to bet you're seeing the parking lights not the blinker

**SSwt00SS** · 10-30-2008, 12:20 PM

i have the same feeling...

**Eric1987** · 10-30-2008, 02:03 PM

Well I am pretty sure its the blinker because I can see them turning on individually as I click them left and right. I can go to any auto parts store and get it? And thanks guys I appreciate the help so far. Sorry I am such a n00b.

when that happened i used it as an excuse to get halos with the black housing and clear housings all the way around except rear tail lights. i like the clear side markers and bumper housings they make the car look real clean
