    This afternoon, biglang bumilis ang right turn signal indicator sa dashboard. I would normally suspect a busted bulb, so I checked and found that the front right turn signal doesn't light up.

    Pero ngayong gabi, after making a right turn, ok na ulit! Turn signal indicator gap between flashes is back to normal. And the front right turn signal lights up again. Weird...

    Anything like this happened to you guys? Wiring problem? Haven't done anything lately. Maybe it's just the age of the car...

    baka sa wiring. Check if there is corrosion sa mga links ng wiring. Kung meron, just clean it with sand paper. I hope it helps.

    Check mo din mga fuse mo, might be loose kaya may time na di maganda yung contacts.

    usually the bulb is either loose or the filament (inside the bulb) is loose.

    Thanks guys. As it turns out, the bulb and its socket are fine. The wire plug that goes into the bulb socket seems to be losing contact... Maybe cleaning will do the trick.
