Usually means one of your bulbs is out on that side of the turn signal. Usually that is what happens.

Excellent.. thanks...

I went outside and checked the singnals, sure enough both front turn signals are not working. I did just get back from a trip and they were wroking then. or atleast one of them was I remeber seeing the light flashing on the front right. and it just so happens that on that side when it was on it would not click fast. so maybe there is a short burning them out?

anyway, thanks a bunch... I will go get new bulbs tomorrow and start trying to figure out how to get in there to change it, looks like a SOB to get changed...

anyway thanks again...

new fix for this problem...

he was right about the bulb being out, but also if you have your tilt steering all the way down you will pinch the wiring... so when you put the tilt back up a little bit... bingo the turn signals work... so now I know where to start digging for the short...

good luck guys
