Hey, ever since i bought my Eclipse GST my turn signals are weird. My left one goes slow while my right one is double the speed?

I made a small movie of what I mean.

I would like to make both the signals the same speed. would rather the slower of the two. Anyone can help?
thanks!

This is an easy one. Turn your faster turn signal on now step outside the vehicle and go to that side. Look at the front and teh back blinkers. Is one out? Replace that bulb it should fix the problem. Most of the cars nowadays use a faster blink rate to inform you that there is a blown bulb. Keep that in mind next time you have this problem ;)

well ****, tonight I'll go out and check it out. If that's not in I'm comming for you ;) haha j/k

LOL well it's either that or your blinker relay and if both sides aren't doing it that counts the relay out. Let me know if that fixes it though.

uh oh....

I turned on the turn signals and every bulb that I can see is working. But its weird. on the back the slower signal flashes both blubs at the same time (I can see two bulbs flashing) and the right side the bulbs flash at different times. it's hard to explain w/o visuals, sorry.

but that's what i can see. [&:]

Did you replace any bulbs recently? Sounds like one might be backwards? Also try turning on your running lights some cars actually blink faster if there is ANY problem with one of the blinker bulbs (Remember the running lights are also part of the blinker as a dual filament bulb on some cars).

hmm, OK, I'll check that out tomorrow. I'll see if I swap the bulbs maybe they'll start blinking at the same time
[sm=signs003.gif] to me. haha. I'll figure this out. though if it takes a while, it wont kill me.

Something else I JUST thought of... Does it only happenafter a rain or after it's moist outside? There may be moisture seeping into the lights letting them short enough ot cause that to happen (My sentra does it cuz of an accident). Check your gaskets on the light sockets on the side that blinks fast.

Hey Poot did you get it fixed or what man?? C'mon I'm dyin ta know what the problem was...

hey man, i've been busy as fudge with school.
But I'll go check i out right after I finish my dinner. cool beans?
haha, hold yer horses.

I'll report back to you asap.

OK, i've figured it out mostly.
It isn't the bulb that's burnt out. It's the harness that holds the bulbs that's broke. atleast i think it's that. I'll swap bulbs and the same harness wont light up the bulb. What do you think i should do?
I can't see if any of the wire is broken or worn. ::shrugs::

My 96 GS does the same thing, replace the one harness, a wire is prolly loose in the harness, its alot cheaper and easier on the mind to just replace it.

I have the EXACT same problem!!!! It has been like that for me ever I installed my projector headlights, which doesnt make a damn bit of sense because you still use the same turn signal harnesses. I just put stock headlights back on, didn't go back to normal which I didn't think it would. To add to the frustration, on my gauge cluster whenver I have the parking lights on, the left green arrow for the blinker is CONSTANTLY lit. When i turn the left turn signal on when the parking lights are on, it blinks very fast but the light is very dim, when the parking lights are on and I turn the passenger side blinker on, it blinks very slow and doesnt even blink in the front. I have no clue what the problem is but I want it fixed!!! Does anyone know where you can buy new harnesses for the front turn signals?

glad i'm not the only one frustrated with this problem lol

I had the same problem with a dodge of mine, Turns out there was just a shorted wire in one of the harnesses.
