Hello. im having a major problem with my turn signals. When i turn the signal eather right or left ,the lights dont flash consitantly. it flashes twice instead of once. every 2 or 3 flashes it flashes twice real fast. also while its doing that the voltage gage moves to the flash. i think it might be the 12V flasher but i cant find one..lol.

any suggestions..

You can also check all of your bulbs and make sure none are burned out.

well i changed the back break bulb and one of the flashers. apparently the hazard lights operate on a seperate flasher. i changed the flasher for the turn signals and still the same problem. Im really confused now..lol.

you can put in a heavy duty flasher not the bulb but the flasher. should be next to or in the same area as the fuse pannel. looks like a alum. can but smaller.

Some were on the fuse pannels and were around plastic part at the bottom in the fuse pannel.

other thne this i have no clue i havent heard of this happenign for a incondesent bulb LED lights sure but not the old versions.

glad it helped.

you used to see this alot in old pickups with a two kit wired in to them also. or they would flash real slow.
