Both rear blinker lights are out. I took out the housing and replaced the bulb (the one that I googled...) It still doesn't work. There are 2 possibilities going through my head. 1: that the wiring for the rear blinkers is somehow messed up. (Especially since online it seems as if the bulb has more than one function, and its the same bulb for the tail light and the turning signal.) 2: there is a second bulb on the side, which may be the correct bulb. (The 2 problems with that being, A: there is no mention of this bulb on Google, besides for one reference on a YouTube video. B: when I go to any car site, I.e. advance auto parts, when I put in the car type and model it shows the other bulb as the correct one). Basically I want to know which exact light bulb is the turning signal. So back to my original question. If someone owns such a car, I would ask them to check which bulb is blinking when the turning signal is on
Thanx. I didn't even think about that. I'll have a look and report back. @JTZ now u see why I post here? Google didn't lead me down that path...
Read the comments here to know which fuses to check http://www.automotiveforums.com/t948940-discuss00_buick_lesabre_turn_signal_problem.html
Don't know anything about cars but is it possible that second bulb is a hideaway bulb
Does the brake lights work? How many filaments does the bulb have?Brake light, turn signal and tail light outer are all 3057 bulbs.http://www.osram-americas.com/en-us/applications/automotive-lighting-systems/Pages/lrgmain.aspx
The car manual usually has a detailed sketch of all the fuses
What is a hideaway bulb?
What is a hideaway bulb?ThanxI have the 3057. That's what I replaced. More than 1 filament. Tail light works. That's what's so weird
Does your brake lights work? What about running lights?
they are emergency vehicle flashers
Like hazards? Isn't that the same bulb as the turning signal
No it's an extra light that's put inWhatever forget it
Yeah its possible that its just a random bulb. I had such a possibility, but I still can't find that bulb online to buy. I wouldn't mind testing it just in case
Post a pic of it
