This is a new one...after the body lift *solved*

Post by RocK »

K Right after the body lift was installed my left turn signal indicator was on. All my lights worked correctly and both turn signals flash. But the left signal flashed very quickly compared to the right one. Drove it two miles home and the indicator turned off but when signaling it still flashes quickly. I didnt see any pinched wires and i checked the ground strap by the fuel tank and it was fine. Ideas... please....

Ground wire at the rear bumper brackets is loose , unattached, or broken. Look closely at both sides.

Ok getting icky... checked the wires both sides both are grounded i cleaned em up and put em back. None of my lights are dimmer. and the blinker is fast lights on or off. I have checked every ground in the rear now and the only thing left is for continuity checks.

ya know like a week ago the right side did it to me...the fast flash thing. it only did it for a couple seconds and quit. never happened again and the indicator never stayed on. We dont have a module to control these things do we? No... HMM.... I will have to throw her back on the lift and start rippin stuff out. Oh by the way how did yall make up for that spare being loose after the lift

If all your bulbs are working , there must be a bad gound somewhere.

The spare should not be loose unless you accidently put it back in with the street side up.
