Rapid Fire Right Turn Signal - 11/2/2007 3:11:00 PM    *DarkStar   Posts: 74 Joined: 7/13/2007 Status: offline Ok, so I get in my car to go to work this morning, hit my right turn signal to make a turn and notice that it's blinking quicker than normal.  Like, ricer quick.  Now, the left signal blinks at a normal rate of speed and I didn't make any adjustments - the turn signal just started blinking fast.  Any suggestions as to how this happened?  How would I fix it?  Thanks in advance for any help/input... _____________________________ 2006 GT Auto I like to go fast....

Been to the dealer once to have the new upper mounts installed. Buttheads put a 1 inch scratch right in the middle of my hood. Made 'em fix it. Cost 'em $385.00. _____________________________ (in reply to 157db) Post #: 9

Now the new VW beetles require you to remove the rear fender to replace the bulbs. Think of that one next time you are behind one of those new VW beetles. And dont try and get any major replacement parts.... They are 2 years out in back-orders.... Thats why so many of them are for sale used.... < Message edited by 157db -- 11/3/2007 12:18:54 PM > _____________________________ AiRaid CAI Saleen Short Shifter F/R GT Sways GT M/T TakeOff Muffler Roush Rear Shocks/Springs Roush Hoodscoop Roush Window Louvers SS Eleanor Grill Pony Emblems CDC Decklid Panel CDC Sequentials Raptor Shift Light MSD DashHawk (in reply to TPony) Post #: 11

This is something that Ford actually has to approve for the dealer also. Ford will ask the dealer if any of the wiring or harness have been messed with aftermarket parts which is why is suggest the Plug and Play type Sequential to people because if ford see you have cut into and spliced wiring for them they can void that portion of the warranty.
