    Guys,

    I'm having this problem where my signal lights will suddenly blink wildly. Sometimes it's ok sometimes it will blink wildly. My hazard function is ok. This problem is intermittent.

    I experienced this on my 98Gli during rains and never on dry conditions. But with my exalta 2000, it's happening both in dry and wet conditions.

    Need help. Any inputs will be highly appreciated.

    regards,

    city

    Busted bulb/s or busted blinker relay or shorted wires.

    May effect din pala ang pangit na bulb? Kaya siguro medyo erratic din sa akin hehe

    sa signal lightbulbs kasi 2 or 3 point yung contacts nya. pag di maganda yung contact or pagka-fit or may prob na yung contacts nawawala sa timing yung blinking. palit bulbs ka na yung original para fit talaga.

    Check mo rin baka may moisture yung contact between bulbs sa receptacles.

    while you're at it, linisan mo na rin yung sockets kasi sometimes they build up oxidation which causes erratic operation. good luck!

    kung hindi sa blinker bulbs ang problema, pwede din dun s blinker relay switch (yun nga ba tawag dun). I experienced it before and had the thing replaced. the trick is finding where that blinker relay/switch is located. It's usually under the dashboard, or bunched with the other relays under the hood inside your engine bay.
