Unhappy OMG someone please tell me theres a way around this

k, well for the past few weeks my left turn signal has been kinda screwy. sometimes it would work and other times it would just click really fast. so, i tried replaceing the bulbs, nothing. after scratching my head for a bit i got out the trusty RX7 shop manual and did the diagnostics in there. turns out that the circut board inside the car's cpu is toast i talked to my dad and he said that he also had to replace it and it was going to cost ~$600 GAH! someone please tell me i can fix this or jack a reliable one out of a junkyard, or do i just have to fork over 6 bills and forget a new tranny this summer

Thanks
Troy

Did you try resoldering the circuit board? They are notorious for loose or bad solder joints. Especially the ones where the plug-in's are.
Hope this helps!

When I got my FC I got all the boards resoldered at a little electronics shop for about $5 a board. 2nd best $ I ever spent on the car (the remote starter being #1.)
