  • right side blinker

    i used search and read a few posts, but im still not sure what i may need. (bulb.. etc)

    the light in the dashboard for the right turn signal stays solid, but the blinker does not make the ticking sound. (both front and back signals dont work). I checked to see what it did when i had it in park, and when the right blinker is on, the 2 lights closer to the middle of the car stay on, but the far right light doesn't work. when I turned the car back on I got the SES and Check gauges lights in the dash.

    on a side note, my left blinker works (but!) the far left light also appears burnt out

    i would try replacing your bulbs and the blinker fuse, if that fails it could be a bad relay switch,
    im sure someone here knows how to replace those, i never had that issue though, sorry
    I will take on all comers...or come on all takers!!! Whichever you prefer.

      My blinker lights did the same thing when I had a burnt out bulb. Replaced it and everything was fine.

        I also noticed that the front ones go out a lot quicker than the rear ones (probably because of the DRLs). I've already replaced both front ones, and the right side had to be replaced twice.

        A good way to check to see if it's the bulb (worked for me at least), is to turn on your hazards. It uses the same bulb up front, but a different filament. If your hazards work fine, but just using the turn signal doesn't, then it's your bulb

              sounds like just a bad bulb, but also check the blinker fluid :D

                how much crap is involved putting it in? i think it is my front one because on the back all three light up.

                  i had a bad connection in my taillights for a long time. i went through and replaced all the bulbs and the blinker fuse. before i figured it out. i think it was my middle bulb socket it had some funk in it and i cleaned it out and its worked fine since. for a while it would work and then just cut out. i checked the wires around the socket and had a loose wire and i put it back in and they came back on. make sure you check the relay switch too.
