Turn Signal Problems

[MikesJo]

This just started in the last few days. If I have my foot on the brakes my left-turn signal half lights up (not fully lit) and I'm not able to signal left, the light doesn't blink on the cluster nor on the outside of the car. It only doesn't work if I have my foot on the brake. With the foot of the brake, I can signal left. With foot on, the signal half lights up.


Any ideas?

That is fucking wierd

I just looked in the bently and the two circuits are seperate. How does the right side work? I guess you should try replacing bot left front and rear blinker bulbs. Easy and cheap way to see if the bulbs may have a short.

I actually just thought of something to try. I bet your light carrier on the left side is messed up. Take the brake light bulb out on that side and try again. I bet the backing is shorting to ground, not allowing the blinker to work with the brake lights lighted up.

Right side is no problem. I'll give your idea a shot. Just take out and put back in?
