Default Turn Signal

Hi Everyone,

When I turn on my right turn lights- the green "right turn" light on the dash stays solid rather than flashing. I parked the car and noticed that the rear right light is on solid (rather than flashing) and the front right light doesnt turn on.

Do I need to replace both rear and front bulbs or is there a bigger problem?

Thank you,
Derek

It is your front only. I have had to replace the bulb in my car and it did the same thing. In fact I just got done doing it to my brothers camaro.

Go from under the car. There is like 3 or 4 bolts to take out and pull the flap down. Still had to change it by feel but it was easy enough to do . I've heard you can go from the top too. Not sure which is easier.

I did this just a month ago for my right turn signal and took 5 minutes maybe.

This morning, low and behold, the left is out. Thank you GM for constantly reminding me the quality you demand of your vehicles...

You're front turn signal bulb is out. If it's a TA you can open the headlights, remove the plastic cover around them and reach it through there....on a Camaro you have to go from underneath.
