Front Parking and Turn Signal Lights

Has anyone had problems with the lights purchased from LMC trucks that are mounted in the front bumper giving a faint blink when the lights are on? If so how did you fix? My truck also has a new wiring harness on the exterior of the cab fitted.

Re: Front Parking and Turn Signal Lights

I had problems with the Lf turn signal lamp had poor ground. The cheep spring behind the light socket was rusted and would have poor ground causing lots of lighting problems. The fix was to take a pick and pull forward on the socket wiring and remove the rusty spring and replace the spring.

Re: Front Parking and Turn Signal Lights

Hay Hauler 71 thanks again for the information. I tore down the light fixtures yesterday to expose the spring and found no corrosion or anything to indicate a grounding problem. I tried stretching the spring and there was no change. Put some dielectric grease on the bottom of the spring on the end away from the bulb and then the light started working correctly. I am suspecting these lights came from LMC truck so if you have some or are buying some and have this problem you may want to check that out.
