They just stay on solid, no matter which side i turn on, it does it.

whats that meeean?

Do you mean the internal blinkers or the bulbs themselves?

both

Depends.....You could have a bulb burned out or your blinker unit has expired.

Look over all your turn signals for one that won't light.

Weird, their could be an electrical short somewhere, or a bad fuse.

The relay is probably broke, IE the thing that switches the lights on and off on and off.

its a pontiac, thanks ill check on that.

ok so you turn the signal on and it stays solid instead of blinking correct?

If this is the case or if it doesn't work its just the blinker or flasher gone bad... go to advanced or any auto parts store and get a new one..

its rather normal for these things to go out every few years. they are not but maybe 10$ or so..

Awww! That's so cute.

No, it's not.

It's the flasher.
When a bulb burns out, the remaining bulb will usually blink faster.

kind of like when your level does not work, you need to refill it with level bubbles?

Its too cold, the cold air froze the light!

^^^ Usually that

Get out and confirm it will ya! Hit your turn signal to the left..get out..look front and back. Then hit your turn signal right..get out..look fron and back.

Whaddya see?

Depends. If it stays solid, check the front and rear turn signal bulbs (rear probably doubles as a brake light).

On my Regal, I have a bad turn signal stalk/switch, and it needs to be replaced. Its causing my turn signal to stay solid when I turn it on, but blink rapidly from the rear. If I lift it higher, it will signal just fine. Now the light wont even come on at all, and its one of my day time running lights.

means....get them fixed.

woke up this morning, and they worked... dunno what that was all about

It's probably a bulb. Filaments can fuse back together, but it won't last long.

well she said all of them were doing it right and left so I'd say its the blinker fuse.. they are pretty cheap to replace so best to do it now before it stops working period.

you need to replace your blinker fluid and possible the canooter valve.

What model?

I already said blinker fluid.

the mechanics in my section, do this thing where they tell some new kid that he needs to collect an exhaust sample from a truck and give him a garbage bag.

Ha ha. Go find me a can of prop wash.

A hot boiling kettle of water on an ant hill works good for me...

the mechanics also do this thing where they tell the new kid to go get a T.R. double E from the mechanic sergeant.. believe it or not, this one works the best.

One kid did this last year, went up to the supply sergeant telling him that the maintenence section needs any T.R. double E's in stock. The section sergeant just looked at him for a second and goes.. "did you just ask me for a ****ing tree?!"

we love the new guys

We used to send n00bs to supply to get a box of grid squares, or to comm for some squelch oil
