Turn signal/head light indicator problem
For some odd reason right turn signal light is flashing faster ( and the Front right is flashing dimmer also). I checked all my bulbs and they are good. I am not sure how to solve this problem and I dont know where to start. Another thing too is that the "headlights" inidcator on my dash no longer turns on when I turn my lights on. The indicator lights still function becuase they still turn on when i have the keys in "on" but havent started the engine.
Any suggestions as to what might be my problem and possible solution would be great~ Thanks |
Well, i would check your ground wires up by your lights. I have to wiring problems all the time on trailers at work, and most of the time it is simply a grounding problem. It might sound funny, but the last ground wire I fixed on one of our trailers it was in the brake system. When we hit the brakes the headlight would come on, so wiring can be really weird!

First, are all the lights working?
Most often, it's a bulb that's out. |

no idea but it's common
When I bought my Z I shopped around a lot of used cars and did notice this exact problem in two Z's. I didn't buy either of those, so can't tell you much more than that except that it happens.
