alright guys i guess this is where id post this question...

anyway,this is a very strange question....whenever i start my car up,the left blinker light comes on & wont go off until i turn the blinker thingy either up for the right one or down for the left one,it all started today....whats up with that??? is it a short somewhere? anyone else ever had this trouble?

 

What ever side of the blinker is lit up, check the parking and brake lights, and make sure the blinkers work on that side of the car.

 

yes they are all on but now whenever i just started up the car of course as my luck would have it the blinker light inside the car is not on whats up with that??????

 

You dont happen to make a left turn into your driveway do you?

 

sure do.....why? thats bad isnt it???????

 

Do you put your blinker on to turn into the driveway?

You might have better luck in the electronics board.

 

yes i always use my blinkers-lol.....

thanks! never thought about the electronics board can someone move this for me please?

 

Before you turn off the car, make sure that your blinkers are off. Then start the car again, and see if the blinker turns on when you start it. If this solves the problem, tell no one.

 

roflmao!!! im 100% sure that both the blinkers are off whenever i do turn the car off.....i havent been smokin or drinkin anything except tea-lol

 

Glad weve got that taken care of then. It might be a relay getting stuck or something. Im sure this can be worked out when it gets moved to the electronics board.

 

it must be that ghost again

i probably shouldve added that its not like the blinker is turned on,it is just that the light inside the car is on but aint blinking...i dont know i have one very haunted car-lmao

 

moderator...can you please move this thread to the electronics board? thanks!

 

Try a new flasher unit, probably stuck or flaking out on the inside.

 

how do i go about checking out the flasher unit to see if yes it does need replaced or no its that ghost??? any way to tell for sure??? also lets say the unit would fail,that wouldnt mess with the brake lights would it? i know the lights on moms jeep went nuts whenever she had a blinker light out...you pushed it up for the right one & the left one would blink & vice versa

 

It is a small round "can" up under the dash, driver side towards the middle. There's no telling what it might do if it goes bad, they only cost a couple of dollars, just replace it to eliminate it as the problem.

 

thats what i would do (above) if all you lights work, check all your outside bulbs first (turn blinker on, get out, look ect...) if one is burned out thats your prblem, btw, my old jeep went ape **** when it had a bulb out. most cars do.
