hey guys i got a 98 trans am and my front left parking light/turning signalwent out so i put in the new bulbs on both side but before it went out my turning signal wasnt blinking like it should on the dash!! so i replaced them hoping that would fix the problem but now neither of them are blinking AT ALL [:@]the only thing that happens is they stay lit on my dash and the light only comes on in the rear taillights...sooo whats wrong with it??

 

just sent you an email man, i believe that was u that emailed me atleast

 

When both bulbs are not working the car can't complete the relay circuit that causes it to blink. If you have both bulbs in and they're both working right it should work fine. If one of the bulbs is dead the turn signal light will just stay on and not actually blink.

 

well see thats the thing about it is that i bought 2 BRAND NEW bulbs but i still aint got nothing...now just both the signals dont even blink all they do is stay lit on the dash....??....

 

Check the rear also.

 

well thats the thing is that the lights in the rear are still on they just light up when i put on the signal but they wont blink like they should...

 

check ur fuses, u might have a short somewhere

 

You may have put the bulbs in wrong since the side that used to work doesn't know take them out and look the small "wires" that make contact with the wires are slightly offset and could easily be mistaken when putting them in.

 

Have you tried replacing the flasher module? There are two, one for the hazards, and the other for the signals.

 

I second the Post about the Flasher. This the first thing you should look at and it is a cheap part.
