Light issues

[88MJXLS]

I was driving home tonight and realized that even though my lights were on, when I brake or use my signals they don't work, I had been having problems every now and then with my left signal not working, or blinking really slowly, but now only the front signals work. I'm not quite sure what would cause both the rear lights, and my front left turn signal not to work, any ideas guys?

Welllllll... You probably know about checking the grounds front and rear for ANY lighting problem. Check those first. Then make sure ALL light bulbs are working, and that you have the correct bulbs for the application. I recently found that I replaced a rear turn signal bulb with one that didn't flash, so lots of fun there. :rotf: Check under the dash for any loose wores, particularly ones that would go to dimmer switch, or multifunction turn signal. After that, it might be something major :???: But I hope not!

When your left front signal wasn't working before, did you notice any bumps or jars in the road? That would tell me to check for bad grounds or shorts. How long has this been a slight problem, and how recently did the lights stop working? Any recent projects with wiring/lights? I once cleaned a bulb housing and a light didn't work. Bad connection in the socket
