Turn signal or head lamp, not both


Recommended Posts

The driver's front turn signal/lamp is acting wonky. I can turn it so that it lights up, but then it won't flash. If I turn it the other way then it's dark until I turn on the signal, and it flashes normally. I used my multimeter and it's getting normal voltage. I sprayed liquid wrench in the socket and put a dab of dielectric grease, but it still doesn't work.

 

Any ideas? All other corner lights/flashers work perfectly fine. This light was banged up before I owned it, but the assembly appears to be ok.

 

Ideas?

 

The bulb is brand new.

What are the tail lights doing?

 

Working perfectly fine. When I twist it so the light is on, then it does a super-fast-flash, but when I twist it the other way to only be a turn signal then it flashes normal speed.

Gut you can only install it in one direction. Do you have the proper bulb?

 

I think it's the proper bulb. It's got the two bumps on the bottom the the guide bumps on the sides, which line up with the socket perfectly.
