Turn Signal Problem 94 sts

[hobo69]

1994 sts First of all my right turn single always blinked fast but the bulbs worked now (after a cold night -2 deg and not getting above 16 deg day time) when I put on my head lights or my fog lights on my right turn signal light on the dash comes on then the dash starts saying turn signal on if I turn the right signal on they blink and work on the outside but the dash still saying turn signal on if I put on the left signal on they work but the flasher light blinks with them when I turn them off the dash stops for a while then says turn signal on again when the lights are off the turn single work like the used to thought maybe water got somewhere and froze but not sure thought I would ask for some help thanks

Ok I fixed it I checked out the light sockets and found one the bulb turned a little to much put a new light socket in and now it works right.Just thought I would share it with every one.

Glad to hear it. I found the lights go goofy when a simple problem exists.

I found the light bulb base - contact tips will disfigure in time due to heat and create blinking woes.

I have been chasing my rear tail lights blinking weird, and finding the ground wire that plugs into each of the light socket needs to be "self-adjusted" in the inlet to work properly. I had to slide out the ground plug a tiny bit to correct the fast flashing. I used a tie wrap to secure it in this "new" position.

For the life of me, I could not figure out how to remove the ground and service the contact. You stick a tiny blade in to release but I couldn't figure out at what "clock position" to stick it in.

The only thing I have left to fix is my left turn light won't turn on, and I know it's not the bulb.
