RE: turn signal
[X(] cant say as ive ever seen a problem of this sort. i doubt it would be from a low voltage problem(bad ground or low volts) as this would most likely make a bulb last longer as opposed to shorten its life. ill assume you are talking about a two filament bulb (1157,3057) and if so is it the park light or turn signal filament that is burning out. i could see the parking or marker light filament burning out if the lamp assembly is loose and bounces the bulb around after its hot causing the filament to break.. could use more details..how many times have you had to replace it?? where are you getting the bulbs?? kurt

RE: turn signal
If you have a first and somesecond gens they use 1157. All third gens use 2057 and the fourth gens use 3157. You can tell the difference between the 2057 and 3157 because the later has a flat, plastic plug on the end instead of the round metal. Are you useing a decent quality bulb and is the front or rear signal that does not blow good? Not too dim?

You could take a bulb out of a socket that is working and put it in the socket that the bulb burns out in and see if it burns out quick. That way if it does not you eliminate that sockey and its bad bulbs

RE: turn signal
I had the same problem when I bought my car. It was cracked and had let moisture in. The dealership dried it out but it still isn't as bright as the other one. They said Camaros were notorious for this problem. They said they would reseal it and dry it out some more to try to rectify it. I'll probably end up getting dinged on replacing it.
