Re: Electrical Issues!
Usually if your getting the hyper flash with the blinker bulbs, one of the bulbs is bad. If you swap out all the bulbs and your still getting the hyper flash, then on of the connectors for the lights is bad.
I had that on my truck when I first got it. I changed out all the bulbs, but I ended up changing out the connections for the marker lights in the grille, and that fixed it. Someone had poorly spliced them in, plus the connectors themselves just looked bad. Like they had gotten pretty hot at one time or another.

Re: Electrical Issues!
Your welcome, and good luck. Electric issues can be a pain chasing down. I know a little about chasing down issues. I worked in the repair dept at an auto factory for years. Bad grounds, cut or pinched wires were the bulk of the causes.

It was a lot simpler before halogen and LED muddled the terminology waters. As long as you had the proper number bulb, it just worked. I was worried that your customer had tried to fit halogen(normally pre-LED headlight type bulbs) in the turn signal spots as some kind of super bright custom job. That could cause all sorts of issues with standard flasher cans. Does the emergency flasher switch make all four corners flash? I use that as a quick check for the turn bulb filaments and connections. |
