When I turn my lights on the left signal indicator stays on and flickers a lot faster when making lefts. I noticed the front turn signal does go on til I apply the left signal. I tried to change the bulb but still does it. Any solutions?

Re: Left signal indicator on....????

had the same thing happen to my Jeep Wrangler, only when I applied the brakes the left turn signal lit up, I replaced the bulbs on that side and applied dielectric grease in the sockets and that took care of it....hope that helps.

Check all of your bulbs. Maybe the bumper, tail, or corner lights(signal or parking) are out. That will make it flicker faster and if say both front ones are out the light stays on in the dash on some cars.

You've may have a bad ground. However, as mentioned, change bulbs (front and rear) first. A "fast" flasher, by itself, means a burned out bulb.

Bulb is most likely your problem, spend a few bucks and change em all out. Sometimes having 1 light out causes another to go out, my Bravada had the signal light in the bumper burned out and it made the corner light on the same side not illuminate. Popped in the bumper light, the other one worked and all is well with the world.

Bet :2cents: yur corner light flashes opposite the bumper light when the turn sig is on. Reason is the corner light grounds through the bumper light element which is why it didn't work until you replaced the bumper light.

Same thing happened to me. Seemed like whenever I was driving and hit a bump while signalling it would act up, and I couldn't get it to act up when in my garage. I spent a couples months tearing different things apart (all the lights/sockets/steering column/under the dash) and finally found that someone before me had changed the socket on the left signal light, and instead of soldering the wires they just twisted them together and taped them up. I found the bad joints about 24" back inside the wire loom, soldered that ****er up and went for cruise!
