Default Blinker/ tail light problems

so my right blinker started to blink really fast, i get out of the car to check and sure enough the one all the way on the right was not blinking only the one in the middle was blinking so i figured a bulb was blown, i went to the store to pick up a replacement. when i took off the tail light assembly i noticed the bulbs were not blown but replaced them anyways. now both of them dont blink or light up brighter when i step on the brakes, they do however come on when i turn on the lights. any one know what the problem could be?

Did you get the right bulbs - i.e. do they have a major and minor filament? When you turn on the turn signal do the signal indicators on the dash still light up?

p.s. Love the sig!

Hey, i just got the same problem this morning. The right blinker was going a lot quicker. I thought it was because of the Diablosport Predator.

Is it because the bulb went out or the wiring?

I was thinking of getting sequential tailights, would that solve the problem while getting a cool look at the same time...kill two birds with a giant rock?

Thanks,
-Jun-

I agree, check to make sure you have the correct bulbs!

Sometimes resolving issues is all about having good karma
