did the marker light get reversed with the blinker light? Did you disconnect them when doing the headlight?

Also, if your ground is not right, it could be back feeding from one bulb to the other. Be sure to check all your grounds.

Did you check your blinker fluid?

check to see if the bulb has two filaments that are not broken.....in other words make sure the light is not burned out.

How often do you have to change that? I hear you can do it only once every ten thousand miles or so, that's synthetic right?

...sorry for jacking your thread... try checking all your fuses/relay/connection
