maxima turn signal question

General Chat

Q:

my maxima has started blinking faster on one side and the flasher is loader on the faster side. i thought burnt bulb but they all still work, however the front bulb on the faster side appears to be a little dimmer than the other side. is it possible that the bulb is slowly burning out?
its a 2001 maxima.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

A:

Might be, bulbs are cheap change it and find out. Also you could try switching that bulb with the one on the other side to see if it changes anything.

FOR SURE that dimmer bulb has higher than normal resistance! Throw it away. -NK

ground to the bulb. Run a jumper from a good ground to the ground on the socket and your world will get a lot brighter.
