Replacing turn signal light
My left turn signal was clicking rather fast so I changed it out. The light continues to click quickly on occasion. It works when I first start the car, but after a few miles up the road it goes back to not working. What could this problem be?
any idea if it is the front or rear TS light ?
Probably the front, the plastic bulb holder is known to have contact issue with the headlight housing.
Pencil eraser the contact points on the bulb holder, and in the housing, if you can get to them.
Try some diaelectic grease also.

Original owner '05 Xfire 59K. Have fixed sticking key issue as per Paul with his video after dealership tried 2x replacing tumbler. Now have right front turn signal flashing quickly and no light in right rear. Replaced the bulb, still not working. Put replacement bulb in left turn socket and works fine so some kind of wiring/connector problem? Multimeter (v) shows no current in bulb socket or in black multiwire connector for this socket. Fuse on left side of dash pulled, cleaned with no change. I know wiring is problematic with this car. Perhaps wire disconnected under dash during my adventure. Really reluctant to remove dash again. Any ideas would be appreciated.
