I would check your contacts where to bulb plugs in to the socket and also check for a bad ground connection from body to frame some where?

I own a 2003 Buick Century. There is a known issue with these cars where the lamp socket (ACDelco LS115 Turn Signal Parking Lamp Socket) overheats and begins to melt near the bulb contacts. Over time, this causes the bulb and/or the socket to fail. I have to replace the socket about once a year and unfortunately, I have been unable to find anyone who offers an improved design. Search Amazon with the description in parentheses above and you will find the part you need. Thankfully it's an easy replacement.

I know your problem as I had it on my '98 Ford Explorer. A guy at work told me about this stuff and it fixed my problems. No more blown bulbs. You need to apply some dielectric grease to the contacts of the new bulb and the socket. This ensures a good connection and keeps out any moisture. CRC makes an inexpensive version that Amazon carries and I see its on Prime now. Good Luck.

The lights only come on with engine running and vehicle in gear. If they still are not working then you may need to rotate the plugs. (The polarity is backwards) also are your connectors burnt. GM has a problem with the connectors burning up from the bulbs burning so hot. LED's use less heat but you may need to replace the connectors

It has been a while since I helped my son install this stereo - but as I remember the yellow wire it always "hot" and the red wire is only hot when ignition is turned on (refer to installation instructions) - hope this helps or at least points you in the right direction

actually it activated check engine light and caused the trans to almost slip between gears, erratic air flow creates all kinds of ecm and tcm issues, it sounds like yours may be dirty, anyways installing the new Delphi mafs sensor solved all the issues

I did. I had to close the terminals in the plugs to make sure they kept a solid connection. I also noticed an issue with the turn signals when the temp gets below 45 degrees f. I wrapped the circuit box with insulation and foil tape and haven't had any other problems.

I am having the same problem and it is driving me nuts. It is on my iPhone and 4g iPod and I have a lexus is 250 so it isnt because my products are old. I get a whirring sound whenever my car accelerates, So I am assuming this feedback is caused by the cigarette lighter. Now if there were a way to filter out the feedback

i would just use a "LED flasher module " https://www.superbrightleds.com/blog/blog.php?entry=07/10/2012/LED-Turn-Signals-Blinking-Too-Fast-(Hyperflashing)

Do you have one of the cars that require the key/engine on to power the cigarette lighter? Check and reset your auto fuse/breaker. If not tripped then bad contact/wire break somewhere. After that I have no suggestions.

Not sure ours bit the dust a month after installing it. Might try disconnecting power for ten seconds or so! If you don't have the manual hear is a link to it. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/StaticFiles/Manuals/Car/DEH-1200MP_OwnersManual1015.pdfAs I recall the manual was not much help.

Go to YouTube and search Cobra 2000 GTL Repair Report. It may not be the speaker but a problem internal.

I had a similar problem, but the "worm gear" solved one part of my concern, although my dials aren't working like they should (instead of going back and forth smoothly, they tend to go in "chunks."). Anyway, the people at the Ford Dealership told me that I'd been a new instrument panel, as some of the electric connections weren't making connection. My car is a '98, so I really don't want to sink a lot into it. Unless you know someone who is extremely knowledgeable about this, you way want to see what a reputable Ford dealership has to offer. Also, you may wish to subscribe to a "Ford Mustang Online Forum." Best wishes and hope this helps a little.

Maybe try replacing your blinkers relays switch, they are cheap. Auto zone or orileys. Make sure your wiring is right.

Yeah they switch back and forth. When the turn signal isn't activated, they are white, and when you turn the signal on they turn amber. You get a year warranty. And they are working great for me and look excellent!

There is also A yellow wire, that is the one that saves all the pre-sets. it should be "Hot" all the time. taped into a circuit Like a cigar lighter. these circuits usually stay powered up even after ignition is turned off. some newer cars are switch with the ignition. so you will have to check yours. the red wire is to be switch. it sounds like that is hooked right.

Hi..., I think your car has another problem, the Dorman HELP wiper pulse Board 88136 is a speed controler on wipers, sorry I ca not be more helpful.

The turn signals are amber and they are separate from the light in the center that blinks!
