Question Signal Light Problem...

Hi, today my signal lights were fine but, on my drive back home my signal lights stop blinking and now they stay direct when I put my signal lights for a turn. I see this when I am driving on my dashboard that is were I notices. I stop at this parking lot to check it again and the front stay on and back direct when I apply the signal lights.

Any advice in how to trouble shot this problem?

This is a flasher problem. I have the same thing happening, I have a new flasher, but I'll be damned if I can find the thing. From what I understand, it's somewhere above the driver's kick panel, but i can't find it to save my life.

No, not both the front and the back. Most times it's a flasher.

I found 2 lights were burn from the Right and Left on the back of my car. The other light was the right one on the front side to the right was out. Will that make my flasher screw up?

This is what I found online not to long ago.

Question: 1993 Oldsmobile Achieva 4 cyl mileage: 175.634. I am having some problems with my right turn signal; it will come on, but it will not flash. I went to the auto parts store and they told me that I needed a flasher, but I don't know where to install the flasher. The left signal is working fine. Can you tell me where to install the flasher because I have looked under the panel on the inside of the car and the only thing I see there is the fuse section

Answer: If the left turn signal functions properly, the turn signal flasher is not at fault. Check the bulbs on the right side as you probably have one that is burned out.

Ok! all fix, it was my lights. I just replace all 4 of my side lights and it work. Well I guess now that in some older cars like my 81 Rx7 it lets me know that my lights are out by staying direct over blinking fast. So, problem fix and thanks for your help lovintha7. Hope your problem gets fix as well.
