Turn Signal Trouble

[Umby]

Whats up guys? Its been awhile since I've had anything to post about... BUT...

Lately, when I first get in the car to go to work in the morning, from inside, the left turn signal arrow blinks VERY slowly and the right one "clicks" but doesn't blink... but by the time I get to work they both work and blink at the correct speed... WTF???

Did you get out and visually see that the right marker lamp wasn't flashing? If you hear it clicking,does it click the same speed as the left side? If so,and the right marker lamp is flashing but the inside light isn't,suspect a bulb in the gauge cluster.Also,have you tried your hazzard flashers?

Now if the right side is clicking at a different speed than the left,it's either there is a bad connection in the marker lamp bulb socket or the flasher is either not plugged in all the way or is due for a changing.

Edit - - - - Duh i'm a dumb a$$! Not paying attention,I forgot to notice you said it blinked VERY slowly "At first".

Thanx for the advice... I haven't had a chance to actually see if the outside signals are actually flashing since this isn't something I generally notice until I'm well down the road... if it continues I'll try the flasher first and take it from there... electrical just isn't my thing
