Signal Light Blinks like 100

Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives

When I put my left signal on it blinks like theres no tommorrow.. FAST and LOUD.. What might be causing it, all the lights work, just really fast blinking.

Maybe a burned out tail light...its possible

I got the same damn problem but have been to lazy to fix it or attempt to fix it but my problem is CONSANT ticking, unbelieveable. someone here told me its the multi function switch dieing and needs to be replaced, or something along those lines, oh well, the ticking demons haunt me still.

Nope all the lights work..

Interesting, did you check the turn signal bulbs to make sure they work?

ALL LIGHTS WORK..

I saw that but didnt know if you ment just the tail lights or what...no need to scream at me...i would check the flasher unit, if that checks out good then go check for shorts

Sorry, I just said it twice that all lights are working..

my car did this once before too. i took out the taillight bulbs and noticed that one of my taillights was filled with water. the connection was just coming off and on when i would hit the brakes hard enough or accelerate hard enough for the water to slosh into the bulb connection. drilled a super tiny hole in the bottom of the light so it would drain, and cleaned off the bulb and voilla! no more ubber ticky.

(fyi, the car ticks faster when there is a break in the circuit, or that switch is broke, for those that dont know this common knowledge)

Multi function switch (MFS) a.k.a. turn signal switch.

change your tail light and front turn signal bulbs.

Also check for water in either your tail light or headlight and use folded up bounty to soak up the water little by little, then change the bulb for a dry one.
