ok this is a wacky story! the british installed a light bulb inside my headlights to pass their light conversion thing. it was supposed to be my parking lights (instead of how they are now in the states). i came back to the US and i just installed my new headlight assemblies. i re-wired everything back to factory, matching all the colored wires with the ones they cut (those bastards!!). now, when i use my turn signal, the light comes on but stays on and doesnt blink. when i let off the brake, it blinks fine. im trying to figure out how in the world it does this? i am rather sure it isnt crossed with any other wire. i color matched them precisely! every now and then, they do what they are supposed to be doing.

i swapped out the bulbs and they seem to be working but i drove around and its intermittent. all my other accessories on my turn signal stick work fine. i know there is a relay or something under the glove box so i will try that next! do any of u guys know what else to check for?

correct bulb wattage? if your bulbs draw too little or too much, it messes up the flasher. just an idea. good luck.
