Blinker Light Trouble HELP PLEASE

Recently one of my blinkers stopped working and just turned solid. So I went and replaced all the the bulbs in the entire car. And still only one blinker worked. Then a couple days later both blinkers stopped working. No solid lights nothing, not even anything in the dash. But when I turn on the headlights all of the lights turn on every single one. Also I went and replaced both flashers and the Turn signal fuse. Help what can I do, I heard it might be a ground somewhere but I don't know where to look.

HELP


Nick

Yeah thanks a lot ^. For some odd reason my left blinker light in my car stays on constantly. I noticed that my front left blinker is out, so maybe that is just an indicator saying it's out.

Re: Blinker Light Trouble HELP PLEASE

Yep I got the same issue here altho mine would work every once in a while, is there an actual replacement available for the socket without having to butcher the wiring harness?

Dont know, they look like factory sealed units to me but maybe someone more advanced can answer that for us!

Socket Situation

ClassicIndustries.com has sockets.

Depending on your skill, you will be able to solder the wires downstream and reinstall or replace the factory covering or loom, and it will look original.


Happy Racing!
