odd problem. maybe you have had this?

Well i have encounter a problem so i was Wondering if you guys might know what is could be I'm stumped.
Ok well when i turn on my running lights. ( fender lights rear lights all lights but headlights i believe) my left turn signal stays lite up. and the right one is fine. When the running lights are off and I'm able to signal left when i do it signals fine. But the right turn signal is faster then the left. I don't care for the speed difference just the fact of safety so people can see when I'm signaling left. Any ideas? have you ever heard of this problem?

the light itself might be going bad. some cars do that. i unno if urs does but turn signal lights arnt that expensive i dont think

[shinobis13hb]

Ill swap the bulbs right now and see how that does. I noticed when my lights are off and i turn the left. Signal on my gauge cluster LIGHTS. Will flash according with it

[shinobis13hb]

i swapped the bulbs and nothing. its all the same thing.
anyone?

Looks like a cross-short between your park light and your turn lights. Did you changed anything close to your front or rear light recently? Bumper, lenses, etc...

the car did have a silvia front on it.. if that makes a diffrence?
i will upload a pic later of the wiring.. but yea thats it it was wired fora sil front. but itdoes have OEM USDM front on it now. note: i did not do the wirs for the silfront.i got the car ith a oem front.

Well it makes a difference, if the guys that installed it didn't know what they were doing and just connected the 2 wire together. Check if there are any wires touching each other on the left, between your signal and your park lamps.

well i went through everythign i found some stuff but nothing that was for any of that stuff.i should have an extra head light switch im going to try that one.
i cleaned up everything but could it possiby be a bad cluster??

[army240]

hummmm not likely to be the cluster in my opinion... those things rarely goes bad...

try to disconnect it and test your light... if the condition is still there, it's not the cluster.

i was using a sohc cluster before and i got a used DOHC cluster with about 170k the first night i turned on the lights the cluster was REALLY bright (leds) for about like 1/2 a sec then it dimmed... all the way.. i changed the dimmer 3 times. changed the white box.. i havent gotten a new cluster yet but jsut looking at other options.
i contacted racepar1 he is one of the best mechanics i know i dont trust many people only other guy i trust is vic at elegant auto sport.im going ot change the headlight switch again... i have an extra one around but im sure it wont fix it.
