mjfreak Posted yesterday at 01:09 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:09 AM I searched and didn't see anything like what I've got going on....my blinkers work perfectly....and then nothing....I've pulled fuse block apart and cleaned it....added all the suggested grounds, updated front bulb sockets to 97+, rear is a flatbed with led lights. When they stop working, I wiggle all the wires under dash with no change......then just randomly they work again....when they aren't working i have found that the purple wire on the multi function swith will be blinking with test light but blinkers aren't working....if i had hair I would be pulling it out.

Pete M Posted yesterday at 02:13 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:13 AM could be a loose or corroded connection in the wiring or in the multi-function stalk. those suck to have to track down. did this happen before the LEDs were installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle_SX4 Posted yesterday at 04:24 AM Share Posted yesterday at 04:24 AM The most common issue with the blinkers is the front bulb sockets themselves. They get corroded and cause all sorts of strange issues. The only fix is to cut the old ones off and wire new ones in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjfreak Posted 23 hours ago Author Share Posted 23 hours ago Something else I noticed today. When blinkers are in FU mode.....and if hit brakes...both blinker indicators on dash light up solid...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watchamakalit Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago Check your hazard switch in the column. I know mine can occasionally get bumped to the point its almost half engaged and causes my signals to do goofy stuff. I just pull it or push it (I don't remember which way is off ) and all is right again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what I'm leaning towards but not sure where to start.....guess with front blinker socket as they were used....not sure if the 97+ were known to have issues but I've watched a few videos whith identical problem and front blinker sockets fixed it....

Pete M Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago make sure the little tab in the bottom of the socket isn't squashed flat and failing to make contact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle_SX4 Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Have you tried swapping the turn signal and hazard flashers yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
