    Turn signal issues?

    Yesterday, I drove my car, and went to make a left tun and the signal wouldnt flash at all, it would just stay lit. So I pulled the flasher out of my vic and now the right flashes very fast and the left is slow. my ditch lights take longer to turn on too. Should I get another flasher or is there something else wrong?

        Usually, I contribute turn signal issues with bulb failure.

              Fixed. New flasher, makes a gay click sound that is barely audible now.
              But at least my signals are OK.

                    I was having a problem with my turn signals turning on but not flashing. i switched the turn signal flasher and the hazard flasher, now they will even flash the LED tail lights.

                      I had an issue almost exact to this. It was a ground issue. Follow the ground wire for your brake lights. I traced mine down to the one that is grounded in the inside of the trunk, on the bumper end of it.

                        It has been working great for the past few days, only my ditch lights take a little longer to turn on. :cuss: If it happens again I will check the grounds.

                          Well shit!!, when I got back from advance today, I got out of my car with it running and the lights on to get the mail. What do I notice? I found that I have no rear lights and no side marker lights on, all I have is headlights. WTF is going on?

                          Not a fuse either!

                            It is a bad ground, I can garanty it now. Spuratic random symptoms are and the symptom of a bad ground. If your ground connection is failing, it will find a way to ground, but it may not be through the same circuit.
