I was just wondering the corner signal lights in my front fenders have never worked since I owned the car. I've changed the bulbs and still the lights don't come on, all my other lights work fine. What do you think my options of repair are?
Do you mean the side marker lights or the lights in the grille? Either way, the first order of buisness is checking the wires to see if you have power to them. If you have power in the wires all the way up to the sockets, then it is likely corrosion in the socket causing them not to work. If there is no power in the wires at all, you need to follow the wires up to the harness and test there. Bottom line, if you get 12 volts to the bulbs, they will light up.
I had a similar problem...My lights and blinkers have always worked perfect with out a hitch. That is until recently...After sitting for quite a while, while painting the car and doing body work, I put it all back together and the blinkers are acting funny. They all work fine when the head lights are turned off, but when you turn on the head lights, the right rear flasher does not flash. It just comes on. Keep in mind that it works fine with out the head lights. Every light bulb is a tested good or new bulb. After checking out everything realy closely, I found that the dash light, the one that flashes for the driver is burned out. That light had always worked in the past. Only thing I could figure out was that because it was burned out, it was preventing the rear light from working properly. Sure enough, after an afternoon of standing on my head and replacing that bulb, all of my flashers and lights work as their supposed to. Anyway, I'm not sure what your issue is, but keep in mind that one bulb being out can cause another to malfunction. Hope that helps...Dave
I still can't figure out why none of my side markers work nor my horn... I even replaced the headlight switch which is where their fuses/relays are.
