First problem

Victory Red · June 23, 2003

OK. I've only got a meezly 720 miles on this truck, and already the turn signals are weirding out. Three times today, the left turn signal was clicking twice as fast as normal. Never the right side, only the left. That makes me think the flasher is OK, since it controls both sides. Or is there something I don't know? Does the BCM or other computer control the signals and flash rate? I used to have strange stuff like this in the "old days" when you installed a heavy duty flasher for the added load of trailer lighting. I don't even have a plug for trailer lights on this truck. What the heck is going on? Anyone else have any oddities with their signals?

Burned out or loose left bulb, front or back. I'll betcha that's the problem.

Thanks. I'll check it out.

I did just add the amber DRLs, but don't think I loosened up anything else while I had it apart.

I agree with lrymal. It sounds like a bulb problem to me...

Definately a burned out bulb on that left side. Make sure you didn't knock any loose. A quick turn signal like that means there is a bulb out where it is putting power to...nothing too major!!! Only 720 miles...
