replacing turn signal bulbs
so, my passenger side turn signal started flashing real fast so i replaced front and rear bulbs in both of them (what a PITA btw). anyhow, is there something else i need to do to get it to stop flashing rapidly?
|
Did you figure out which bulb was out before you started replacing?
If it's a new bulb in front that's probably not it. If I remember correctly from doing my girlfriends 01, it's the outside two brake lights that flash. Did you do both already? |
well the bulb that came out of the front assembly was burnt orange and beginning to bubble and flake. in the rear there was only one bulb that flashes when the turn signal is on and i replaced it
|
The front bulb is orange coated, but yes they do bubble and flake. As far as the rear, there was only one bulb flashing when it was flashing fast? When it flashes fast, that means a bulb is out. If bulbs were flashing, then they were still good, and I regret to inform you that you changed them for nothing. Turn your drivers side signal on, see what's flashing, compare it to the passenger side, and change the bulbs that don't flash.

hrmm son of a beeeetch! lemme go check!
|
no luck! there are 2 turn signal bulbs for each side, you were right about that. one of them was out on the right side so i replaced it, but it doesnt go on!
|
so i had a 1/2 bad bulb that was the culprit! had to go to 3 diff autozones to get the replacement bulb, grr.
|
At least it's working now. Just think of it as bonus experience :boink:
|
yeah, but it was a pain in my ass! :breakdancesmilie:
