    weird blinker problem

    blinkers function normally during daytime but once I pull the headlight switch they both stay on without any blinking

    Bad flasher relay or what?


    btw car is a '91 325is premium sound and aftermarket stereo

            Bad ground at the light. Since there isn't a good enough ground, the tail light part of the bulb is grounding through the turn signal part.

                  I had this problem on my retrofitted 325i harness I put in my cabrio. Basically the power from the markers being on were jumping to the blinker wire causing too much power running through the blinker relay.

                  So check the bulb, contacts, and wires.
