Car: 1984 Camaro 'Vert Engine: 350 Transmission: 700R4 | Bad radio wiring interfering with turn signals? Ok, so I've been fighting my turn signals ever since I got this car. I replaced everything I could think of at first, the blinker modules that are hard to get to on the bottom, fuses, and even cleaned the bulb terminals, as it was suggested a bad connection could cause a resistance problem.
Nothing helped. When I got the car, the signals would work, but would either blink insanely fast, or insanely slow, the latter being the most common. When i replaced the blinkers, they died completely and would not go at all.
Suddenly yesterday they started doing the randomly blinking thing again, with the right signal working almost completely correctly, and the left one coming on often when I didn't tell it to. At the same time, I've lost the left rear speaker, and the left front is really fuzzy.
I recently replaced all the speakers and the wires going to the speakers are good now. Previously it was a terrible mess. I however, have not pulled the head unit to see what mess lies behind. Is there a chance that both problems could be the same? Maybe a crossed line or something? Or any other ideas on the signals? | | |
