Default ****Lighting/Electrical issues...*****

ALright, this crap is really getting old.

This is the only issue I have ever had with my 98 TA. Basically, one of my DRL's die. So I think, ok, the bulb is out. That has happened once or twice, but most time (like now) the bulb is fine. In fact the light lights up when the headlamps are on or when I press my unlock or lock remote button. But it WILL NOT STAY ON OR BLINK. its REALLY annoying not having a left blinker now and not finding anything wrong. Basically, the connections are really f'n dirty so I am cleaning them today and replacing both DRL bulbs. This sucks. Has ANYONE had this issue or seen this before??? Dealership guys???

this sucks

Blinker relay? You can pick them up for a few bucks at any auto parts store.
