Lethal_Threat Posted August 21, 2008 Author Share Posted August 21, 2008 My drivers side turning signal in the headlight is blinking dim and fast, why is this?? Any ideas??? ANYONE??? Its really annoying me, i have a practically new bulb in there. It starts out at the right speed (still blinking dim) and then speeds up. The rear turn signal also speeds up but is not dim.

cbk Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 i got the same h_lights on my sc4 and i had the same problem so i brought it to the performance shop and they said the wiring was all messed up and the light was all most finished he replaced the turn light and it never gave me any problem , well its only been 2 weeks lol but nothing yet , if your light is practically brand new then your wiring maybe the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like there's a short somewhere. check your tail light signal and see if you have a bad bulb. Did you have this problem before or after your housing swap?

After the housing swap, but i have the halo's wired into the running lights.....i dont see how the turn signal is affected. I found the problem. One of the butt connectors i used to wire in the balast for the halo let go of the wire and allowed it to grounds itself to the frame of the car, which looks like it just burned the wire back until it didnt touch anymore. I am just absolutely floored that it didnt pop any sort of fuse. All it did was damage one of the elements in the turn signal bulb on that side. I replaced it with another SilverStar and i was on my way. (after fixing the short issue, lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
