When i switch it on it just stays on, no blinking. anyone know an easy fix?

 

most likely a loose bulb, when i wired my halos up, it would do that if i tapped into certain wires, but no others. dont know what was wrong because i got it to work and it works with the turn signals. but yeah last time i put some bulbs in they werent in 100% and the blinker just stayed on no flashing...have you messed with the bulbs recently? they might have a filament blown as well but that usually makes it blink real fast.

 

You have a turn signal out. The rear is alot easier to place then the front. You almost gotta jack the car off the ground to get to the front signals.

 

There are two flashers.
One is for the left/right signals,
The other one is for the hazards.

If one side works and the other doesnt, then there is nothing wrong with the flasher.

Turn on the hazards and look for the bulb that either isnt flashing, flashing erratically, or not lit at all. That will be the culprit. The front and rear turnsignals are dual filament. The dim fiament is for the "parking" lights and the brighter filament is for brake lights and signals.

Once you've found the offending bulb inspect its socket. Either the socket has corroded or the bulb has blown.

 

ok i'll do that. yea neither side will blink. just stay on.

 

As VIP1 said, it's probably a bulb or socket. However, since both sides are doing the same thing it could also be the flasher. Checdk all the bulbs first and if they're all okay then replace the flasher. It is a standard 2-prong flasher available for a couple of dollars from any parts store. You'll find it clipped to the back side of the dash just to the right of the opening when you remove the knee panel under the steering column.

 

Just tonight my rear turnsignal went out also. With the given information I still can't figure it out.
The rear left turn signal works.
The rear right turn signal will illuminate, but will not click.
When hazards are on, both rear lights will flash.
The front right turn signal is out, and will not work with hazards. The front left does work.
The front right light will work with foglights and/or low beams on.
The front right light will not work as DRL, the front left does.
Could this be why the turn signal does not work?

 

Replacing the burned out right front bulb should solve the right side problem. Check for a corroded socket there when you replace it since bad sockets will cause the same symptoms as a burned out bulb (and our cars are infamous for corroded front sockets). The front bulb has two filaments in it - a bright one for DRLs/turn signals and a dimmer one for parking lights. That's why the bulb seems to work with the headlights but not with the DRLs or turn signals.

If the left side doesn't flash then double check all the bulbs including the side markers for one that's burned out. Don't forget that there should be two bulbs for the turn signals and brakes on each side.

If neither side flashes after checking/replacing the bulbs then the flasher is the likely cause of the problem.

 

You blew a bulb. That is why your DRL is out. Your front right turn signal bulb is blown. You can buy the bulbs at your local auto parts store. Im gonna let you know that the front signals are a bitch to replace. There is a trap door you must go through from under the car. There are some plastic bolts that connect your front bumper to the frame of the car. The trap doors are located directly in front of the front tires. Its aprox. 5 inchs by 5 inchs. You must remove the bolts to gain access. The hard part is having to lay on ground and sticking your arm in this small trap door and trying to get the old bulb out. Also make sure your bulb sockets are not getting corroded by moisture, this will cause new bulbs to blow.

 

Well it looks like the socket is the problem. It's all corroded and metled on the side. All of the coating came off the light bulb so I'm guessing it over heated. I put a new bulb in and it worked and that fixed the blinking problem, only the bulb went out then came back on. I'm thinking I will need to replace the socket, but it didn't look like it disconnected anywhere close for an easy replace.

 

Yeah, go on and have it replaced(socket), or you will constatly have a problem with the bulbs going out.

 

im gonna check the bulb today, i noticed with the hazards they all flashed but my back right wasnt as bright as the rest. so im gonna check it out. also on that tail lense it is starting to either get water in it or be baked really bad by the sun. you can see where there is either air or water in between the plastic making hazy spots. maybe I should go ahead and do the sequential turn signal kit now huh?

 

ok wierd, now all of a sudden without me doing anything, the signals work fine. ????

 

Maybe your blinker fluid is old - it should be replaced every 150,000 blinks.

I went to Advanced Autoparts and bought a new socket. I wired it up and attemped to put the bulbs in, which fit the OEM, and they did not fit. So, I went back and bought the bulbs that fit the new socket, matching the number on the back of the box. I put the bulb in and they made contact. I tested and it blinked. But, the bulb would not twist in to lock in place so it would not stay in. At this point, I said **** it. I decided I was going to go buy GM and use the aftermarket until I do so I can drive my car. I figured since the socket sits up right it will be alright temporarily. Nope. The notches on the socket are off about 4 cm so they won't fit the lamp! This aftermarket **** sucks! But what do I expect for $6. This **** pissed me off, it's a damn light socket change and it's this big of a deal.

 

no im pretty sure they checked that on my last oil change.



j/k, this sucks, well it works now so i'll just wait. sucks i am being punished for using my blinker too much. you know like a good driver and all
