ok i flip the level for left turn signal, and the lights just stay on, i flip it to the right, and they blink.

I turn the Emergency flashers on and they blink, whats up here?

did you screw around with the lever? I'm guessing that you did a dash swap or something to that extent recently, otherwise this wouldnt happen just out of the blue

therckid

i've never done anything, one day i was coming home from work and all the sudden it stopped blinking, it just stayed on.

JeffW

you may have a bulb out check you bulbs first. its a way to know there is a burned bulb. flasher seems ok sonce your hazards work.

therckid

the left rear light had the middle bulb out, could that really stop it from blinking tho?

Yes. A bad bulb will not blink. The internal blinker light will stay on to let you know it is out.

JeffW

did you change the bulb?

does it now blink?

problem solved.

therckid

i did and it is now fixed! thanks a lot guys.

Kååre

So it was a lazy bulb, eh? You should try giving it some 'crank" that could wake it up....

I've had this on my car too, but it's not permanent, comes and goes. It seems as it likes to do it mostly at idle, so perhaps it's related to a low voltage to the relay or something, or perhaps an alternator going bad.

sellmanb

that sounds more like a ground related problem

83_Camaro_83

Just dont turn left, remember 3 rights make a left

therckid

nah guys back then i had a light out, thats why it wasn't working...


tho when my altenator died friday, and i was driving none of my turn signals worked, they just stayed on and the voltage dropped a little.

brutalform

BTW where do you work at?

Token

I think he's a Wal-Mart greeter

sellmanb

I was referring to him having Kaare having a loose ground or connection.

I have two jobs, marshalls clothing store, and JD byrider, the used car dealership.

At marshalls I’m a customer service guy. I make sure the customers are happy and what not. I love this job and always have. Customer Service/Retail is what I can honestly see myself doing in the future. I'm up for coordinator when I turn 18, in sept. And from there on the sky's the limit.

At JD Byrider, I am a used car salesman, my clientele are people with bad credit or no credit at all, and interest rate is 21% for everyone I deal with. I won’t lie, if I sell 4 cars in a day, 1 person, we won’t ever see anything but his down payment from. We end up repoing the car and sell it again.

I make on average around $1200 a week, and that’s working 30hours at marshalls, and 20 hours at JD Byrider. Currently, I am saving up for some things I need paid. School funds are in size right now. A lot of my money, $400 a week, goes to me just enjoying my money, it may be wasteful to go see 5 movies in a week, and buy lots of popcorn, but I’m used to it (that’s another story). I also like to drive my car a lot, so I use $35 in gas a week. I like to eat good food on my breaks at work, so I spend money. When the time comes for me to live on my own, I will just have to cut back only a tiny bit to be able to afford even the largest of apartments here in jax.


I'm no fool, I have a net worth of $92k I own stocks in Pfizer, Johnson and Johnson, the company I work for, marshalls, and k-mart, I made big on that when I saw they were coming back and value of stock rose as well. I may be 17 yrs old, but I’m not dumb.

P.S. I start my 401k, the day i turn 18, and already have money saved up to deposit. the earlier you start saving for it the more money you will have, it grows exponecially. They recoomend to start at 21-23, and that way, when you retire, you'll be a millionair. Well...




Shane

Token

No you don't.

therckid

who wants to bet their salary?

wait only bet if your salary is less then mine it wont be fair then.....


I made $500 on friday alone at jd byrider, that was selling two cars d00d. Rethink your ideas bro.


i dont feel right taking poeples money, but if i gotta i will.

Token

You're the classic used car salesman- you don't know sh/t about cars, you're ignorant, and you're cocky.

therckid

oh and thats gross, well sorta, marshllas works on W-2 system and JD byrider wokrs on 1099 system.... so i end up gettign tax free money


the thing is, i dont have to know anything about cars to sell them, once i tell people their income will allow them to finance as much as a said amount i take them around the lot and let them pick. Its pretty darn easy.

Token

that's illegal.

therckid

no, its not tax free, they dont take out any money from my paycheck, the government still knows how muhc i make, just at the end of the year, i will end up having to oay and theirs no way around it. They didn't take any from my pay therefore there was no reserve. At the end of the year tho, tax money has to come out of my pocket.

83_Camaro_83

Whats that smell.....**sniff sniff** oh....its bull****!!

therckid

well, if you dont believe me, it dont matter, i have nothing to prove. I just hope, most of you, can grow a feeling of reality, and see that my kind(us youngsters) will be the force powering the country/world. And the things i do, to make my living, are what i;d love a country to be about, not stealing and whatever.

But you guys, need to just wait until your too old to do anything, and that way, your new boss, will be half your age.




Shane

83_Camaro_83

No you dont, they hate you
So your some lonely desperate guy

No kidding, so your fat

yes you are
So your a liar
yes you are

Well from what I can see, your future job will probably be a used comic book salesman

therckid

except my customers love me, oved to see me back in florida, each day i come to work old customers see me and ask me where i've been the past 3 months...


i sell used cars, i may be lonely, but i dont care.

actually i'm 6'1" and i only weigh 148lbs


i actually do have a net worth of $92k, whats your net worth? or do you even have one? Its based upon assets, all kinds of cool stuff, my great grandfather on my mom's side, gave me a lot of stuff worth keeping. And that adds to it.

Ok,i might be dumb, but here, who in th end will win this battle, i can prove my net worth, my income, and yet, if you accept my bet, you'll loose yours as well, its win win for me, so please, take me on boys.

83_Camaro_83

for one, i have an investment plan, but i dont come on TGO to brag about it like you. Im also 17, do you see me going around, im worth a bugillion dollars! who gives a **** what your worth! And Mr i have to prove everything, sheesh man get a life, you making bets on a message board, your a real man now

First of all ,he didnt come here bragging about how much money he makes ,you guys asked him.What do you guys care what he says ,I dont ,no sweat off my nut sack....

Trickster

This thread has gotten way off topic from what it originally started as before it was revived from its peaceful slumber. Also therckid was not asked how much he made, the question brutalform asked was "where do you work?" therckid volunteered the amount of money that he made and the stocks that he owned and what his net worth was in his response to that question.

And why is this in the tech/general engine section?

Trickster

Because of the original question asked!!

kretos

i say we all pitch our cash together and get this kid a haynes or chiltons manual, wait a sec he makes $1200 a week, so maybe he should buy all of us something.

seriously though shane, instead of coming in here and asking about every little thing that goes wrong, buy the manual, its 20 bucks, certinaly won't break your "bank"

Trickster

With the price drop on manuals at Helms he should splurge on one of them.

kretos

gotta agree there trickster

VILeninDM

wow, another Shane thread that's not locked yet.

Shane dude, you say you make more than 1k/week, you live at home, you spend money on junk food and pop corn and few weeks ago you were waiting for your next-next check to buy some 30-50 dollar part!!!??? The guys are right,

at this point you do. Problem is you've been BS'ing so much on this board, that people need something that is NOT A LIE from you. Proving anything you said here is a good start. I don't know if you noticed this or not, but there is about 1% of people on here that still give you benefit of the doubt.

How about scanning your W-2 and posting them here (make sure you black out sensitive info like you SS#). Wait, do you know what W-2 is?

kretos

honestly man, i wouldn;t bother trying to get him to prove something, we all know its bull, he knows its bull, but it makes himself feel good to come here spouting crap all day.

hell there was a point i thought him owning the ta was a bunch of crap just by his posts

sellmanb

how about everyone drops this post so that it doesnt get locked up? The post does have useful information in it, up until the post was ressurected and people started the flaming.

I know that I will just look past posts with a lock on it, and it would be unfortunate to someone who does a search for this problem, who would pass up this post with good information on it, just because it's got a lock on it.

Token

money cannot buy you common sense.

THEGENERAL

LOL yeah i think with his net worth he should be able to afford a couple manuals maybe even a mechanic to work on his car so he doesnt come in here asking about a bulb he knew was out and just wanted to make a new post because the others got locked ..

Shane heres a word to the wise anyone can come onto the internet and tell people that they are someone they are not but those people usually end up getting caught up in thier own LIES .....ill leave it at that...
