bdoubleu Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Any thoughts on why my rear blinkers seem to work intermittingly? The fronts work fine, but it would appear the rears work sometime.Thoughts or suggestion would be apprciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stangeba Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 I had a problem when I replaced the bulbs with made in China bulbs. They are slightly smaller and don't fit tight. Could be the rear harness or rear ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72-CLASSIC_RIDE Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Have you tried removing the bulb(s) from their sockets and checked to see that bulbs firmly seat into sockets and that contacts are free of corrosion? A good starting point to trouble shoot. It sounds like a poor ground problem that may just require some cleaning. My 2 cents worth.....

bdoubleu Posted March 17, 2012 Author Share Posted March 17, 2012 Sounds good I'll give it shot they do look a lil gunky on the inside. Any thing to use as a cleaner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo's70MCs Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Sounds good I'll give it shot they do look a lil gunky on the inside. Any thing to use as a cleaner? I use electrical contact cleaner. I have used other cleaners for similar jobs but I wouldn't recommend using them (brake-clean) it's a bit harsh on exposed metals. Only other thing I recommend and it pays for itself, is using dielectric grease you can buy an inexpensive tube at a local parts store.
