Turn Signal Problem

ctstiger · #1 (**permalink**) 04-20-09, 02:07 PM

My CTS's right turn signal seems to be in hyperdrive. Meaning, it blinks/clicks about 3 times as fast as my left turn signal. All turn signal lights are working when I turn my hazards on, and they function at normal speeds. However when I turn just the right signal on it freaks out.

I think I need to either reset or replace the fuse for the right signal?

Am I correct?
Where is it located?
How do I go about resetting/replacing that?

I'd check all the bulbs again in the turning mode, not the emergency light mode. Maybe you overlooked a bulb. Also the front DRL is the signal bulb so be sure when the car is in drive, that both DRLs are working.

All blubs work, the DRLs (which I'm assuming are the amber lights up front) don't light up when I'm in drive. They light up when I individually turn my signals on, again however, the right turning signal is about 3 times as fast.

I actually had an issue similar to this.

Only the left turn signal would "hyper-flash". Granted, I had LED turn signals installed with load resistors. Then after I parked and turned the car off, an hour later I go drive it again and it's fine. No "hyper-flash". Problem hasn't come back since. This happened about a year ago.

I know that doesn't help your current situation, but I just thought I'd chime in with my little experience.

when mine did this, one of the bulbs on my fogs was out. i changed it and it worked like normal and no problems since
