Why is my front turn signal lamp dim?
Although the front R turn signal lamp and the R turn indicator lamp are in parallel in the circuit they each have their own grounds. So if both are dim I would suspect resistance in the circuit further upstream (although checking and fixing grounds is always usefull).
Is there a turn signal when headlights are on?
That’s one issue…next problem is the no front left turn signal when headlights (and all the back lights that come on when you turn on headlights) are on. I plan to check if turn signal doesn’t come on if i just put parking lights on?
Why is my Head Light not turning on?
If it does then the turn signal problem is most likely with that switch and not a ground problem for that light. Try cycling the switch a number of times to see if that helps clear the trouble. The headlight issue is a ground problem though. Check the ground connection between the negative battery connection and the chassis.

What does the blinking on the turn signal mean?
The turn signal is the device that indicates the direction via blinking rear and front headlights. In fact, the driver does this manually to inform other vehicles of the turn, he is intended to take.
Which is brighter the left or right turn signal?
Neither of my front turn signals are very bright at all. However the left one is brighter than the right. The right one is almost not noticeable at night and hardly visible during the day. Now, whenever I turn on my headlights the two turn signal indicators in the dash light up…but the right arrow is always dimmer than the left.
What to do when turn indicators don’t flash?
Turn Indicators on Dash Don’t Flash 1 First, check that your turn lights work properly. 2 If one of the signal lights doesn’t come on, check the bulb; check the bulb socket for corrosion or damage; check for a bad ground at the socket. 3 Check for an open in the circuit, between the light (s) that doesn’t work and the turn signal switch.
Why is my turn signal dim in my car?
Clearly circuit resistance due to oxidation in a 33 year old vehicle’s wiring is system wide including the bulb sockets, wires, switches, connectors, and grounds. MF: Shoot pool Fast Eddie. EF: Im shootin’ pool Fats.
Why does my turn signal blink twice as fast as the front?
I haven’t even begun to check it out, except for glancing at a reflection of my left turn signals as I’m driving. It appears that the front is working and the back is not. It blinks normal speed on the right side, but twice as fast on the left. Is this because the rear light appears to be out, or is it a bad relay?
Why is the left side of the turn signal not working?
This time, though, the left or right side of the signals doesn’t work. You may see the dash indicator lamps illuminating brightly, but the turn lights won’t flash. You may be dealing with bad bulbs or a fault between that side of the circuit and the turn signal switch itself.
