Turn Signals



Well, in response to my own question about double time on the 
flashers. I quess I should have used the Google search at the 
DMCNEWS site. Heres what I found and it worked.

Subject: Fast turn signal

A few weeks ago I posted a message about my "blankety-blank" blinker. 
All 
the bulbs were good, flasher unit was good, and I performed the "nut 
& 
bolt" tail light modification, still the left turn signal blinked 
twice 
as fast as the left. I took aprt the front turn signal housing and 
socket. A little corroded, but not bad, but I cleaned it out anyway. 
No 
luck. The more aI played with it I noticed that if I held the 
bulb "just 
right", it would work fine. It was too loose in the socket, it 
appeared. 
I had the factory original bulbs, so I know the bulb was right for 
the 
application. Too make along story short, I very slightly squeezed the 
socket at the open end with a pair of pliers, making it VERY SLIGHTLY 
oval shaped. The bulb fits snugly, but is easily removable and it 
works 
GREAT again. Probably not the "right" way to fix it, but it works.
