Crazy Blinker Problem

So my girlfriend and I were going to bestbuy,a nd on the way home my right turn signal started flashing at double it's normal speed. The left stayed normal, and the 4 ways are normal. I noticed the rear right turn signal on my truck isn't working, is that my trucks way of telling me that it needs a new flasher bulb on that side? Thanks

~..Josh.

You got it, those lights are the first and sometimes only to go. I think the # is 3157, but if I'm not mistaken a 3156 works. Whatever I put in, it's lasted 3 times as long so far. Or do what I do and point with your middle finger when signal breaks!

you should also check you blinker fluid. after a while it wears out and should be changed. ask for it when you go to the parts store.

this is a quality fluid.....

Don't use that STP stuff it is CRAP !! You need to use the KaleCo Synthetic Blinker Fluid, and the dual remote filter for it ! This stuff kicks the crap out of the Amsol Synthetic blinker fluid, and the KaleCo remote filters capture 98% more particles.

That's true! And you can increase your blinker fluid change interval to 50,000 miles!!!!!!!!!

Hrmmm, i went to the autoparts store and asked the guy at the counter for the blinker fluid, he told me they were out of stock but i could use water as a substitute. I got home and got the hose out....but i cant find the resevoir? I looked all through the owners manual, is this blinker fluid a new thing?



























HAHA u cant think that ^^^^^ is serious.
