Title: Stupid Question/Slow Turn Signal
Post by: NorCalAeroCoupe on March 30, 2005, 06:37:54 PM
Could it be something as stupid as an old flasher??

Haven't gone to the parts store yet....gotta wait for payday.....

A new flasher will most likely make the turn signals flash much quicker.

I replaced a flasher unit in another car with a non-heavy duty model and the turn signals were a lot faster. I would think that would be an easy solution to your problem.

Check your bulbs. A burned out bulb will slow it down. If they're all OK, replace your flasher with a Tridon HD12.
