Turn signal works fine but stopped blinking (yes I changed the bulb)
So my right turn signal stopped blinking for some reason. Both the front, back, and cluster lights just won't blink when you put the turn signal on. All other lights on the car work perfectly. I changed teh bulbs ut no luck. Any ideas?
I tried a search, but most people just said a bulb change would fix the issue.

Check to see if the actual turn signal harness isn't rusted on the inside, I've had to change mine. replacement is at Autozone. I know my 3rd gen camaro had a turn signal flasher fuse, I'm not sure if these newer cars have them, but that could also be the culpret.

hey, i had the same problem that you are having. i tried replacing the bulbs and it didn't fix it at all. come to find out, i didn't replace the right bulb. on the camaro, there are two bulbs up front. one is for the blinker and one is for the courtesy lights. make sure that you replaced the right bulb, the one for the blinker is not easy to get to. best way is from under the car, just unscrew the plastic panel and it gives you decent access to the turn signal.
