I know there are a lot of posts here related to blinkers, turn signals, bulbs, etc. What I don't know is how fast the turn signals blink on this car.......normally.


Mine are blinking VERY fast and I've gone out of my way to check bulbs, connections, etc. for any not working, poor contacts, etc. But if they all illuminate when I turn on the headlights and/or turn signals they still blink VERY fast !


So first off............how fast should the turn signals blink.


Second, if they are not supposed to blink as fast as they are, what should I be checking to slow them down ?

 

Check the emergency flasher, it may or may not have something to do with it.

 

Do you have LEDs?

 

If you put in LEDs in the turn signals, the low current of the LEDs causes this.
You can put load resistors in to beef up the current and make the flasher happy, but other than going back to bulbs, that's about it.

 

The previous owner put LED bulbs in the front signals. I'm waiting for an order of standard bulbs to arrive so I can swap them out and see if that fixes it.

 

I learned something new today! It's going to be a GREAT day!

 

Problem solved. Took out the LED bulbs and put in the standard bulbs. Turn signals flash at the normal rate. Maybe this will help someone else with a similar problem
